Crafty Book Reviews
I happen to read a lot of crafting books, really a lot! I lead a group of Crafty women once a month in
making something new or different in the Augusta, GA area. I am always looking for novel techniques or
old crafts that can be made new again.
Do I buy all of
these books? No, but I wish I could! I do go to the library quite often though. I pick out books on all topics, jewelry
making, crocheting, glass decorating, sewing, quilting, the list goes on and
on. After borrowing them, if I really
love them, I buy them.
During book reviews
I will tell you what I think about a book and why I borrowed it from my library
or bought it. I will also tell you about
some things that are important to me, like picture quality, instruction clarity
and picture to word ratio. I don’t do
well with DIY books that have little pictures or not enough explanations to
complete a craft. I will also talk about
readability, is it an easy read, down to earth speech, have complicated terms, and
are the unknown terms explained. All the reviews will be from books that are 10 years old or less (from the
time the review is written). I hope this
helps you when looking for a new crafty book! If there is a book that you would like me to review before you buy it, let me know in the comments, I will do my best to help.
