The Weekend Crafter: Papermaking is a gorgeous "how-to" artist's manual to the craft of creating all kinds of paper - from collages, cards, and stationery to hand-bound books and paper lanterns. It shows how to recycle common everyday items, such as corrugated cardboard, old seat fabric, and old sewing patterns into pulp for fresh paper crafts. 12 step-by-step projects with instructive color photography, unambiguous directions and complete templates make this book a superior tutorial into a fascinating, colorful, and practical hobby!

I have participated in several workshops with Claudia Lee. She is a very accomplished artist and teacher. The only thing that I didn't like about this book was that it is labeled as a "craft" book. Claudia takes her craft to the level of professional artist.

I like the way Claudia covers the whole process from tools to final ideas. I have used her lessons in my own work and in the high school art classes that I teach. This is a wonderful book for the fine art of papermaking. If you are interested in this art form in any way, Claudia Lee is the one to consult for ideas and instruction.

this beautifully illustrated book is full of ideas and step-by-step instructions for all kinds of neat papermaking crafts. It was in excellent condition and arrived in a very timely manner. Shipping was minimal, which it should be. very happy with product and procedure.

this is a great book for kids and adults to be creative together. The projects are fun ,well explained and pictured.
