Day of the Dead Potholders

Artist Joan McDonald is an imaginative and talented watercolor artist living in New Mexico. Her humorous take on skeletons and iconic Southwest designs are delightful.

Great gifts and functional in the kitchen, these large potholders are a great addition to any cocina or hostess gift at a Sugar Skull party! Take time to really look at her art.

Potholders are approx. 10" x 8"
