4.0 out of 5 stars
Great Value!,
By Love To Read Tee "Toni5" (Allen, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Book of Papercrafts: 26 Step-By-Step Projects to Make from Paper (Paperback)
This book has information on everything about paper you can think of. It has clear instructions, lot of pictures. It also gives information on how to use things readily available to you to make paper, paper pulp, and paper mache, and the other projects with very little cost. This is a great book for basic information on paper-craft. Almost all the how to's for paper is covered. The only reason I didn't give the book a 5 star is because other than the basics, the majority of the actual projects look a little homemade to me. But I can always change them to make them look more sophisticated.
