'...lots of ideas for nudging your creative streak into gear.' --Craft & Design, July/August 2008
Product Description
Remember when you were a child, and would happily spend hours creating a collage to present to your mum and dad? Children are often happiest when left alone with creative materials - they let their imagination take over and come up with some wonderful ideas. But as we grow up, we often lose touch with our creative side as 'real' life takes over and we find we have no time to do the washing up, let alone sit down and create something beautiful just for its own sake. Creativity doesn't just fade away though, and increasingly people are turning back to their favourite childhood arts and crafts skills in order to relax and rediscover themselves. "Crafting Creativity" is the perfect handbook for anyone looking to expand or re-awaken their creative side, and is packed with inspiring ideas and advice for creating something really special, whatever you're into - the only limits to what you can create are those in your imagination! Simply brilliant.

I originally got this book from my local library in an attempt to get through a creative block. It worked incredibly well and within hours I was eagerly working with all kinds of ideas. Unlike many craft books this one doesnt tell you how to make specific projects - instead it stimulates ideas which can be used for any type of creative work.

Without investing in this book, I might never have found such bright ideas such as (paraphrased) ".... if you don't know where your time is going create a log and write down what you've been doing every 15 minutes of the day for a week. Review your log and spot where you're wasting time." Personally, most of my entries would be made up of ".... kept checking my watch to see if it was time to log the latest 15 minutes of (in)activity ....."
Luckily for you Amazon lets you take a look before you buy. Look carefully. If it floats your boat (that's idea #1 by the way, make yourself a boat....) then be my guest and please consider buying my pristine copy secondhand from Amazon's used and new section, but I found the book less than inspiring.
