Customer Reviews

I Love this Book

I checked out this book from the library before buying it. The ideas are simple and easy to do. I bought the book for the basic ideas it suggests, and not for exact patterns/designs. So I guess if you have no imagination, don't buy the book! If you are a free spirited person and can think for yourself, with merely an idea tossed your way, then this book has some excellant advice and ideas. Also I am concerned about recycling and making my crafts with recyceled materials. This book fits the bill, as for suggestions and ways to go about doing that.
