Hi! I’m Karen.

I'm a mom to two boys, Arizona native, and travel lover. Desert Chica is my place to share a peek into our life and the easy and inexpensive costumes, crafts and desserts I like to make. “If I can do it, anyone can!” Learn more about me here.

Travel Tips and Adventures

Hopefully the North Pole Experience will open back up in 2021 and you can take your family to visit Santa’s Workshop in Flagstaff, AZ.

Why you shouldn’t automatically buy a Universal Express Pass online before your trip to Orlando.

Trading with Jawas at Walt Disney World was lots of fun.

The coolest Star Wars adventure ever was my tour of Skywalker Ranch.
