Apologies in advance to the author, but I seriously expected more from this book. As a keen crafter (Greetings Cards my speciality), I was looking for inspiration with detailed instructions and photographs. The instructions were there and they're fine (if you're American!), but I found the content uninspiring and the drawings tacky. I wish I'd picked something else from my Wish List as my Yule present to myself.

I had this book. What a disappointment. Dull projects that lacked creativity. Don't waste your money. I wish I hadn't.

I want more!!!

Very nice selection of crafts in this book. Willow avoids giving us instructions for the same projects that every Witchcraft book already has in them (such as a Yule Log, Brigt's cross, corn dolly, etc), and instead comes up with some very interesting and new ideas.
Some of these projects didn't do much for me - I can't sew very well and have an aversion to working with animal products (such as leather), but just the ideas alone in here are great.
If I had to name a drawback, I'd say I wish there was just MORE in here. There are a few projects that there are only patterns for about half the project presented, it's up to the reader to devise their own pattern for the rest. Which is fine...if you have those sorts of skills. I'd love to see a companion book come out with more patterns along the same vein as what's in this book.
My favorite project is the Greenman Guitar strap - I don't "do" leather, but the pattern is simply beautiful, I'm attemtpting to paint the design on the canvas strap to a carrying bag I made instead. :)

Lots of things for the crafty witch

I just LOVE this book. I love all sorts of crafts, and this book is packed full of things I can't wait to make. It is loaded with craft projects from sewing, cross stitch, and quilting to pottery, woodwork, jewerly, and etching glass! There are ideas for sabbat candles, ritual wear, little bags for spell work, and things for your altar (pottery Goddess figures and chalice, incense burners, and altar tiles). The crafts do not require lots of hard to find items either. Further, this book has lots of pictures of the finished products as well (many in color). This is a *must have* for any kitchen witch, or the witch who likes to make her own tools. The only "problem," no knitting or crochet, and I love to play with yarn. However, I give this book my highest endorsment!

Willow has done an amazing job of putting this wonderful book together. Not only are each of the projects written well in simple instructions, but the ideas are so varied and inspiring! My first project was the "Know Thyself" mirror. I'm so proud of it! I'm moving on to the cross stitch Greenman next. The book makes me wish I had a kiln and wheel -- the pottery section is great. Maybe one day...
