Book Reviews of Handmade Home: Simple Ways to Repurpose Old Materials into New Family Treasures
Book Review: A Little Bit of Handmade Heart and Soul
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is full of inspiration; not only are there plenty of projects that can be accomplished with and also for your family, as well as yourself, there is so much spiritual inspiration and insight into what it really means to put your heart into the work that your hands create. I love that the focus is on being truly creative in the most simple way - by repurposing. We all have plenty of things sitting on our shelves, in our closets, in our attics, just waiting to be reborn and given new life to become something newly treasured and loved. I also appreciate that so many of these projects can simply be a springboard for your own creative ideas...in my mind, I'm already crafting a table runner with my children's art work with a holiday theme, and I am supersizing the art and hook rack while finally knowing what to do to utilize a great piece of wood we have left over. And I won't be spending any money that we are currently lacking, anyhow. Thanks to this book, my family and I will be so full of creative projects for many moons to come, and I look forward to watching these ideas grow right along with us. This is a beautiful book, well worded, wonderful photographs, with lovely anecdotes. Keep in mind, it won't teach you much in the way of sewing, etc., but rather lays the groundwork for helping you to discover a way to craft with truly unique materials and ideas. I only wish it were longer!
