5.0 out of 5 stars Divine Inspirations: clever crafts as well as elegant art, May 5, 2002
By 
Robin Manzardo (Burton, Michigan) - See all my reviews
I was looking for a present for my mother; Mother's Day being a week a way, and today found not only the perfect gift but a book that has inspired me to create: ANGEL CRAFTS written by Holly Harrison.

Within the book, an expansive collection of angels can be found, for replication or as a jumping-off point for one's own creations; these angel designs can be executed by the skilled craftsperson as well as the beginning enthusiast.

It was such a pleasant surprise to find that the celestial beings found within the book were not limited to the traditional white winged female beauties, which so often clog the heavens, but instead, the book encompasses a wide array of ethinic groups (KIAH: Angel of New Beginnings), as well as human shapes (The Real Woman Angels). My favorite angel is HEAVENLY MUSE, Elvis Presley appearing as his celestial self.

ANGEL CRAFTS is not only a great gift for my Mother who loves angels and angel lore, but I picked up a copy of myself. After reading ANGEL CRAFTS, I felt liberated and that I too could discover the shape my own personal protector and guardian takes.
