Last Saturday, The Phoenix Fridas, had a celebration for Frida's 101th birthday! It was at Changing Hands bookstore and scores of people showed up! We had presentations, a slideshow, a food demo, I showed how to make flowered tiaras, and two of our members - Emily and Anita - made this fun Frida photo stand!

The members of The Phoenix Fridas each decorated one of the Crafty Chica Empowerment Guardians and we held a silent auction. The funds raised went to the Cultural Coalition, local non-profit group. This saint is Emily Costello's. Isn't it great?
