Easy Fun Crafts!
I bought the Easy Fun Crafts with Everyday Items book today, and it looks fab! There are so many brilliant ideas that I can't wait to try out! If you like making stuff, I highly recommend getting your hands on this book!
There are eight main sections in the book: Origami; Bottle Caps & Lids; Glitter Greeting Cards; Newspapers, Magazines & Catalogues; Cardboard & Tubes; Paper Plates & Cups; Paperclip Jewellery; and Craft Sticks. Both kids and adults will find enjoyable ideas to try out throughout each section and the activities range from very simple to challenging, all with clear, concise instructions.
I think my fave section will be the one on paperclip jewellery. I've made a few pairs of earrings over summer, and this might spur me to add to my repertoire! I already have all the tools required (turns out my degree was useful for something, finally!), so perhaps one evening this week I'll begin experimenting...:)
I think this book will prove extremely useful, what with Christmas being just round the corner. All creative types should have a copy of Easy Fun Crafts to leaf through and get inspired!
