5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to impress a chick September 27, 2010

So i'm a dude...but I saw this book the other day and it kind of blew my mind. I flipped through and saw the ring necklace chapter, and it inspired me to make one for this girl that i'm dating. Needless to say, when I gave it to her and told her I made it, she was blown away.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dissappointed reader November 5, 2010

Dear Erika,

I was so excited, when I read, that you published a book. I am your enthusiastic fan such a long time. I said: Does not matter the postal fee, the high exchange rate of the USD I will order your book from Budapest, Hungary.

I was so excited, when my father told me, I got a package.

I was so excited, I did not even open the book immediately, I waited until got my workplace.

I was so excited...I checked your book from page to page.

And then I was so disappointed. Really. I hardly find anything, what I would like to create from your book. I am so sorry. I can't understand. You are posting so creative things on your websites. How come this book?

I am still one of your big fan, I check your post whenever you publish it. I create your stuff. But I am pretty sure, I never ever buy a book published by you. Sorry!

All the best,
Lema

2.0 out of 5 stars tacky and impractical October 22, 2010

By Tiffany N

Format:Paperback

I love creating things, and I so saw this book and thought it would be perfect!! However, when I started looking at the creations in the book, I knew I should have done more research before hand. Who wants a neclkace made from bouncy balls?? It's huge, tacky and very impractical. There's another project for earrings made from striped drinking straws. Not cute at al1!!

The directions are very easy to understand and clear, but i'm not sure why anyone would want to make half of whats in here. Don't get me wrong, there are a few good ideas, but most of them are horrible.
