Found this treasure at a used book store. I want to be able to set up a pop up craft booth and found many great ideas that are made from recycled crafts from thrift shop finds that are embellished. I am looking forward to making some of the crafts. I only gave it 4 stars because some of crafts are very dated to the 80s and not as relevant today. But many are awesome and with some additional changes can be updated and beautiful.

Some good tips and ideas.

a few good ideas, but a wee bit too color happy and childish in my opinion.
