Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Whether you seek instant seasonal atmosphere or have a bit more time to set the holiday mood, you'll find a galaxy of great ideas in the vibrant pages of Carol Field Dahlstrom's Simply Christmas: 201 Easy Crafts, Food and Decorating Ideas. Seven chock-full chapters explain how to decorate, greet, nourish, give, entertain, light, and remember, in "quick as a wink" to slightly more involved projects.

If you're in a hurry, drape beaded garlands over the banister, dip candy canes in chocolate and sprinkle with colored sugars, or jazz up a candle display by surrounding it with fun accents like jingle bells or faux jewels. If you can spare a few hours, try painting lively designs on a sled or a pair of skates or even your mailbox; cooking up some Christmas Eve soup or sweet treats; or crafting ornament place-card holders that dinner guests can take home.

Besides complete directions and plenty of color photos, there are further suggestions for creating your own holiday traditions, such as recounting favorite Christmases past while the family trims the tree, or surprising overnight visitors with a special basket of goodies. Best of all, the book offers so many ideas, you'll be able to dive into it for new ones for years to come. --Amy Handy

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Christmas does Christmas right, November 16, 2000
Simply Christams is a delightful book filled with absolutely wonderful ideas for christmas. All the crafts are very clever, the pictures are bright and colorful, and the writing is fun and playful. I've made over half of the projects, and almost all of them have recieved praise from my friends. And the best part is, even though the book is named Simply Christmas, it will provide great ideas all year long. Great job!

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love this Book!!!, November 23, 2000
By A Customer
I love this book because all of the projects and ideas are so easy to make yet they all turn out so pretty. I work and don't have a lot of time, but I like to make my own gifts and decorations. Simply Christmas has given me so many ideas that I can make quickly. I love the pictures in the book, too. It makes me get in the holiday spirit. I especially like the ornaments you can make with dots of glitter.

5.0 out of 5 stars You CAN judge this book by its cover, August 30, 2000
By A Customer
This book has just what I needed--great photos, clear directions and ideas to use everyday objects in new ways to decorate for Christmas. The recipes I made (orange rolls and fruitcake) tasted as good as they looked in the photographs. I especially liked the ideas using miscellaneous antique dishes and primitives. The projects I tried really were easy, even for a person like myself with limited crafting experience.

3.0 out of 5 stars Simply Christmas is simply average.
While Simply Christmas has great photographs and an easy-to-use format, I found that the book's crafts and decorating ideas aren't very original. Read more
