Grinning Catrina frolics in a decoupage collage as Ana María González commemorates Day of the Dead with a colorful treasure chest. The word catrina is widely used in Mexico to mean "elegant and polished." Lithographer Jose Guadalupe Posadas created the skeletal Catrina, who was later immortalized in the murals of Diego Rivera. In Mexico, the Day of the Dead is about celebrating the life of those who have passed, rather than mourning their deaths. People visit graves with offerings, including bright floral displays.

“This is the cutest Day of the Dead box”

The box has cute decoupage pictures of Catrina and others celebrating the traditional and festive Day of the Dead in Mexico. Lots of skeletons and scull masks, and all very colorful. Very fun and well made and I will probably leave it out on a shelf all year.

Celebrating the Day of the Dead!

“Two Cats on Bookmark”

I hesitated to open the package this bookmark came in because it was wrapped up so beautifully. Then I remembered one should do a review so I carefully unwrapped the package. Thank you whoever wrapped the bookmark because the wrapping was just beautifully done. The bookmark is very sturdy and is so nicely done. I am glad I ordered it because I feel I now have a colorful, pretty, and sturdy bookmark to hold my page when I am reading my book.
