This review is from: Two-Hour Nature Crafts (Two-Hour Crafts) (Hardcover)
I was very disappointed with this book -- one of the perilously few I'll be returning. (1) With rare exception, there are not measurements or quantities given (and the directions aren't very explicit). This makes it awfully difficult for a novice. Although there are admittedly colored pictures of each craft, I don't consider them sufficiently detailed/large/clear to suffice by themselves with the often sketchy directions. (2) I, myself, was unimpressed with most of the items shown. I perused the book hoping to find *something* worthwhile to justify keeping it, but just couldn't do so. Particularly in light of the high price, I was greatly disappointed. There are many sensational craft books available, many of them dealing with nature crafts (and many of them pretty quick). I feel that the others provide much better directions. JMHO.
