This is my sister, anjelica, and my brother-in-law (her husband, Ben). They went to Maker Faire to see Kathy and Maya. While they were there they got super crafty. Ben silk screened the shirt right off his body (muy mantastic!), and my sister sewed her top at the Swaparamarama. I guess creativity runs in the family!

Last week my wife was away in Fresno working on the crafty chica product line. All our world stops when she is away! She is home now and the house is happy again. While she was gone I made these shadow puppets. You’ll never guess the material. It is from cereal boxes! First you draw your design and cut it out with an extaco knife. You have to add wire to connect the joints and add a wire stick to hold them. I need better pictures but you can see the idea. I’m going to make more of these. i’m also going tomake a pupper

This is my daughter’s little web site for her videos. She really knows how to work t he computer and the graphics program. I’m really proud of her! We are trying to help our son find something he likes. He is going to college full time so he is a little preoccupied and that is OK!
