Treasures from the Earth: Creating With Flowers and Nature description
Drawn particularly to nature crafts, noted designer Kathy Lamancusa offers more than 70 projects that take advantage of nature's bounty. Inspired by seashells, feathers, a wide variety of plant materials, and other flotsam from garden and craft stores, she fashions wreaths, boxes, frames, birdhouses, topiaries, fountains, potpourris, candleholders, and more. Directions are brief but generally adequate, and though the color photos do not sparkle, the book has a greater range of project types than many others of its kind. --Amy Handy |

a potpourri of nature crafts
|
interesting craft book. Has several different sections regarding various natural materials. Shells, feathers, leaves, pods, etc. This books is basically about different home decor items with a "natural" slant. You find your standard wreaths, flower pots, frames, topiaries, etc-but shows how to cover them with various natural materials.
The projects all look top quality-you'd be happy to display as home decor without worrying if they looked "hokey"-but all these projects have been covered in many other craft books over the years-nothing seemed new or innovative. The directions are BASIC-pretty much written with few step by step instructions-a novice crafter may not understand the directions.
Overall, beautiful "eye candy" for seasoned crafters looking for inspiration for "flower arrangement" type crafts. I'd suggest you buy used.
3.5 stars. |
