5.0 out of 5 stars Anna Corba does it again!
If you are a fan of Corba's Vintage Paper Crafts you will also enjoy this book. Filled with great ideas ranging from traditional memory boxes to objects most of us think of as shadow boxes. What unites all these items is Corba's uncompromising style.

1.0 out of 5 stars The phographs are nice
But there just really isn't any substance to this book. The projects are very simplistic, so in that regard I suppose this might be a nice project book for a beginning collage/assemblage enthusiast, but if you have any experience, this book isn't for you. It does have some nice photographs of vintage ephemera, which I plan to cut out of the book and use in my projects,...

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of neat ideas!, January 15, 2009
This review is from: Making Memory Boxes: 35 Beautiful Projects (Hardcover)
I loved this book! There were so many different ideas for using different types of boxes and containers, to create one of a kind keepsakes. Anna uses alot of different vintage items to transform everyday, boring boxes into something to treasure. Pics were beautiful, instructions and supply lists were very clear, and lots of extra ideas to make it very personal. If you love vintage, and altering things, this book is for you! We love you, Anna!

2.0 out of 5 stars for timorous housewifes, February 9, 2008
This review is from: Making Memory Boxes: 35 Beautiful Projects (Hardcover)
the real coverbook is different from that you can see on the AMAZON's page!!!
this is a very bad thing 'cause if I had seen it before, I'll never chose it.
the contents are mawkish and impersonal, often banal.the explanations are insufficient and vague.
he is right for timorous housewifes.
