What's better than a new book full of craft projects? How about a new book full of itty bitty craft projects!
Microcrafts: Tiny Treasures to Make and Share by Margaret McGuire, Alicia Kachmar, Katie Hats and Friends contains more than 25 miniature craft projects to die for.
This is the perfect craft book for anyone who saves the bits and pieces left over from other projects, or who collects found objects that might be useful some day. Tiny pieces of felt, shells, bottle caps or scraps of fancy papers become tiny stuffed animals, miniature books, or little bitty bumble bees to hide in a houseplant.
Step by step instructions, great illustrations, and color photographs will take you through each project, and patterns are included where needed. Don't skip the last three sections of the book: "Supplies and Techniques", "Ideas for Modifying Microcrafts" and "About the Authors" - each will give you lots more inspirations.
The next time you get the urge to craft, but don't want to take on a big project check out Microcrafts and have a little fun.
