The Spirit Of Christmas Vol #15 by Leisure Arts

This book was gracefully presented. It illustrated several styles of the Christmas Spirit along with EASY to follow instructions at the back of the book. Each project was very basic in ideas but the way in which each were presented made you stop & think how you could incorporate it in your own home. I found the perfect gift to make for the neighbors this year. It's called a Festive Floral Topper made with red silk poinsettia, greenery and red, hard candy in an ivy bowl with the floral arranged as a topper. Add a festive Christmas bow and anyone would feel Special!A friend of mine bought this book and was kind enough to let me "borrow" it. Now I need to buy one of my own. Thanks Leisure Arts for more great crafts ideas!! Sincerely, Debbie Statham

Unique Christmas Craft & Recipe Book

The Spirit of Christmas: Creative Holiday Ideas, Book 7, is a fun and unique idea book geared toward the craft enthusiast. In it are full-colored pictures and easy to follow instructions on a variety of themed crafts such as Christmas tree ornaments, wreaths, trims, and related holiday decorations. And, not to mention, a variety of holiday recipes for dinners and different 'desserts'. I enjoyed this book's enticing pictures and its easy-to-read format. It is divided into sections by theme; each craft theme includes a Christmas tree and related decorations as mentioned above. All the decorations in each theme match or coordinate. The recipe section is also divided by themes (like food types.) Overall, it is a creative, well thought out book that every holiday craft enthusiast should enjoy.

Variety and diversity of ideas

Impressive to find in one book so many different, easy to make and fun to do, ideas. My children had fun making the painted shirts. Continue with books this fun. Hope you introduce Leisure Arts for The Spirit of Halloween too!!!!

Excellent, very creative.

This book is full of inspiring decorations and recipes. Several decorative ideas/creations would be easy for children to do and yet still be appealing to adults. There are decorative ideas that would be approprate for the "country" look or a more "formal" atmosphere. I think it's great!
