Mary Engelbreit's "Crafts to Decorate Your Home" contains six chapters of great crafts. It has crafts for every part of your home: kitchen, living room, garden, and front porch. The majority of the crafts are fun and easy. Their are a few difficult crafts for the more advanced craftsmen. Mary Engelbreit's artwork can come to life through your own hands. I recently finished painting a footstool and it turned out so good that I am going to paint another for a gift. It is worth the cost and your time. Also, check out Mary Engelbreit Cross-Stitch book.

I love the cottage look, and this book is giving me lots of projects I can create to give my home that feeling. I highly recommend teaming this book with a decorating book that I got from amazon called Cottage Style, which gives you over-all decorating help.

One of the things I like best about this book - besides it being by ME! - is that the completed projects are shown in 3 different color schemes. It makes it easier for me to envision how a project might look in my sister's Victorian home, my mother's very country home, my brother's Southwest-style decor, and my own bright cottage style. Gift making and giving is now much easier for me!

Lots of interesting projects in this book. I am looking forward to having time to work on some things.
