About Me

I am a down ass Ruca, I'm crafty, I'ma sex shooter, I'm a Son of a Gun. I like to watch,(you know you do too) take pictures and I like to write,draw,dance and read. I love all types of glitter, especially the all mighty Puta Glitter. It has magical powers, ya know... I love Puta's too,(who doesn't?) Ok, ok, I know Puta's get a bum rap, but I when I use that term, you can best believe it a an honored and sacred compliment. So come on already, and take a ride on my fantastic Voyage!
Yoli Manzo, creator of the Sacred Snatch artistic label, was born and raised in the Silicon Valley. She now makes her home in Sacramento, California where she immerses herself in cultural art exhibiting muse from latin folk art such as Dia de los Muertos, Frida Kahlo and religious saints. Her signature has been described as having a very sharp edge that is admirable for a woman artist. She uses mixed media, strong colors, plenty of glitter and her edgy wit worthy of her label. Yoli Manzo and her art work, including shrines, jewelry, handbags, dolls, skulls and paintings have been featured in art galleries, television, and art festivals throughout northern California as well as internationally via the web. She is a member of the Scary Art Collective and the Sacramento Craft Mafia.
Sacred Snatch Designs was born through the hearts of women who were destined to find each other. After hearts were reunited, a bond was formed and "Sacred Snatch" was born. Through their laughter, tears, and perserverance, lies the very inspiration of this company and the Arte that is brought forth to you.
I have been a closet crafter all my life and have recently come out of the closet last year. My favorite inspirations include Frida Kahlo, Guadalupe and Dia De Los Muertos. I create functional art pieces that reflect romance, love, lust and classic latin themes. Ranging from adorned purses and compacts to one of a kind glittering jewelry each convey humor, beauty and culture
