5.0 out of 5 stars LITTLE SECRETS September 20, 2012
By bob
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Book arrived in worn but excellent condition, on the earliest day of the estimated delivery time.
Being a professional sculptor I already knew how to do practically every project the book contained. HOWEVER, this Book has a wealth of neat "tricks". ( I loved the one about putting small amounts of modeling clay in a plastic bag and sitting on it as you work the sculpture so you have a ready supply of WARM SOFT CLAY.)

A MUST BOOK FOR THOSE CREATIVES THAT WANT THE PROFESSION'S DETAILS.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best All-around craft book EVER! December 29, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love the scope of this book! It has every craft I would need, from crocheting to stained-glass. The size of the book is a little large to look at without a table, but I am amazed at the extent of the crafts.
