What a cleverly, attractive craft book! But I found it to be so much more than what I thought it would be. There are over 50 craft ideas with very specific instructions, lists of materials needed and photos of not only the finished product but the process of creating it. Each project has a list of materials, numbered instructions for creation and then a box called "jazz it up". The "jazz it up" box containers options or ulternatives to the original design. I was excited to see so many every day items transformed into beautiful and useful gifts. Gifts such a personalized pillow cases, plastic soap holders as prayer boxes, and even mint tins crafted to be mini emergency kits. There are three sections to this book. The DIY section with the crafty type creations. The DOODLES section with drawings and how to create your own coloring pages. The DESIGN section for jewelry, clothes handbags and other accessories. The items to create are not "cheesy" at all. They are well made and attractive to the eye. This craft book is marketed as a faithgirlz/zonderkidz book. But I wanted to say in this review that adults will find it just as fun and fabulous as the children will. In fact I think this would be a great tool to use for family evening togetherness as the whole family could create gifts to give to others. It also would be a wonderful tool for summer Bible camp or a girls club evening or sleep over party.
I received this book from the publishers but was not required to write a positive review.
