5.0 out of 5 stars
Informative and instructional, March 29, 2009
This review is from: The Craft & Art of Bamboo, Revised & Updated: 30 Eco-Friendly Projects to Make for Home & Garden (Paperback)
When at all possible, I look for books at the library first, check them out and decide from there whether they are worth adding to my collection permanently. This book made the grade in my opinion! Great pictures, wonderful projects and complete instructions to produce your own. For those with a source of bamboo readily available, I highly recommend this book. For those, like myself, who do not have a resource for bamboo nearby, my thoughts run to willow and other fairly straight, smooth watersprouts and limbs from trees. In any case, this book gave me projects and ideas, which is why I added it to my collection.

The Craft & Art of Bamboo Cult Classic is Back!, February 13, 2009
This review is from: The Craft & Art of Bamboo, Revised & Updated: 30 Eco-Friendly Projects to Make for Home & Garden (Paperback)
Carol, I received your revised & updated book and I LOVE it! I really like the new chapters on bamboo's eco-friendly properties and think they add a lot to an already exceptional book! As a lover of all things bamboo, your book has made me appreciate even more its beauty and function, and the importance of bamboo in local and global eco-systems!
I would recommend this bamboo cult classic to anyone who is interested in unique green home and garden projects, bamboo as an alternative to wood and fossil fuels, and gorgeous photographs of this graceful, renewable grass...one of the world's oldest and greenest natural resources!
GO CRAFT AND ART OF BAMBOO!

A Hands-On Bamboo Education, February 11, 2009
This review is from: The Craft & Art of Bamboo, Revised & Updated: 30 Eco-Friendly Projects to Make for Home & Garden (Paperback)
There are very few texts about bamboo that educate and qualify as a hands-on learning guide. This is the best available.
Revised and updated with chapters emphasizing bamboo's "eco-friendly properties" and its future as a wood alternative and biofuel, The Craft & Art of Bamboo, Revised & Updated: 30 Eco-Friendly Projects to Make for Home & Garden by Carol Stangler, should be in everyone's library with an interest in this ubiquitous plant.
You WILL enjoy! Also makes a great gift.
