5.0 out of 5 stars Craftastic!, 15 Feb 2008
By E. M. Flynn "Eadaoin" (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is awesome! Lavishly illustrated and full of projects that are innovative and creative, very well explained, and best of all, that you would really want to make and use - or make and give as presents. Using a wide range of easily available materials you can learn how to make candelabra out of shelf brackets, bowls and baskets out of old magazines, vases out of coloured pencils and plates with all sorts of fabulous designs. I'm off to make some feathers out of craft paper - what better way to spend an evening?

3.0 out of 5 stars looks more exciting than it is..., 26 Aug 2009
By Chantelle Charnley "literary dustbin" (Accrington, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I didn't get as much out of this book as I would have liked- many of the projects were very DIY type projects, where I was hoping for more textile crafts. If you enjoy building things then this will be great for you, but perhaps not so good if you were hoping for something a bit less Bob the Builder! There is a section about health and beauty products, but to be honest none of the recipes were anything I haven't already seen on various websites. However, the tapped tin photo frames are beautiful and I am definitely going to have a go at them! Bit of a mixed bag really...

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun to try, 10 Oct 2009
By Sean OToole (Derby, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Containing more than 150 crafts, this book is bound to have some crafts that the reader will enjoy, but on the flip side will contain some crafts that they hate, or at least don't try. The book is quite obviously American, from the light hearted tone, amusing introductions and abundance of popsicle stick crafts.

The book contains a wide variety of crafts, including but not limited to: mirrors, magazines, frames, lights, window dressings, papier mache and even body crafts.

As a whole, doing every craft in the book would take up a considerable amount of time and be well worth the investment, though the book has varying usability depending on how many of the areas you are personally interested in. Definitely a good buy for someone wanting to try a bit of everything.
