Crafting: The Top 300 Best Crafts: Fun and Easy Crafting Ideas, Patterns, Hobbies, Jewelry, and More for You, Family, Friends, and Holidays

This craft book provides endless possibilities to those that are interested in crafting. I, myself, am not very creative, but after reading this book I think I will give it a try. There are so many different kinds of crafting to choose from such as fabric crafts, scrap booking, painting crafts, fragrant crafts, wood crafts, sculpting and modeling, tape crafting, button crafts, jewelry making crafts, yarn crafts, kid-friendly family crafts, and holiday crafts. I appreciate how the author shares crafts that you can do as a family. In my household, I have two daughters that are really creative and would love to do some crafting with their mother. I also appreciate that the author provides tips on how to set up a craft area so that you will be successful and able to enjoy crafting. This is very helpful that is new to crafting, me.

This book has everything in it you would need to make crafts including a chapter on how to set up your craft room. There are 300 crafts from which to choose and range from knitting and crochet to painting to wood crafts, candle making and more. My grandson enjoyed making the twig frame for Daddy for Father’s Day and we are in the process of making a rain stick for him. I can’t wait to make the wire ring out of a shank button (I collect buttons) and trying my hand at making the herb lemon soap or pumpkin pie soap for in the fall. This book tells you how to make every conceivable type of clay and then gives you how to use it. There are craft instructions using buttons, washi and duct tape, paint, wood, candles, potpourri, scrubs for the face and body, jewelry and patterns for practical knitted and crochet items. There are patterns for making things from fabric and so many scrapbook ideas I don’t know where to start. This book is great for either a beginner or seasoned crafter.

This book is packed with 300 fun projects. This book starts with Craft room setup, supplies and projects anyone can complete.

I liked a lot of the craft ideas presented in this book but was expecting photos of the finished crafts. There were photos of a few of the crafts but not of very many. It was like reading a recipe book with no photos of the finished food. Very disappointing.

Crafting: The Top 300 Best Crafts was such a fun read. There are so many great crafting ideas in this book. The crafts are kid friendly and most of them are made with things that are already in your home. My favorite craft was a lavender sleep pillow made with lavender & chamomile. It was easy and fun and worked! I also tried many of the washi tape crafts. They are a good way to personalize items that you already have.This was a really good read and I definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for fun, crafty ideas.

These crafts range from kindergarten to advanced. The tougher instructions are oversimplified. Most crafts require skills and tools most people don't own. You might get ideas from guys book, but you'll be left going to YouTube for actual instructions.

This Crafting book by Susan has over 300 different craft ideas with clear steps and instructions for making all kinds of beautiful crafts. Am a lover of arts and crafts and I needed to expand my knowledge. This book was just perfect for that. I have learnt how to carve items from wood and sculpt them with clay. Crafting can relieve the stresses of life help you relax,who would have known this! There's so much to learn from this book for craft lovers and those who are passionate. I really loved every bit of it. I highly recommend!

I agree with Amy's review. Although there are 300 crafts there are only scattered black & white photos of finished items. No colored photos as you would think by the misleading book cover. Also NO step by step photos of any of there projects. Also I found the " disclaimer" to be strange; author but no publisher listed; there was also a Made in Usa, Middletown, DE with date of 11 February, 2020 ( I ordered on Feb. 10th, 2020).. So guess they just printed it out for me..😊 Just thought a little strange. Not any easy craft book to use..disappointed.

Worth the money

Art and craft is my hobby and passion that I do in my spare time. It helps my mind in peace and make it more creative. This book has covered 300 plus ideas including jewellery design, soap and candle making and other fragrances which have blown out my mind. I am super excited about getting this book which has enhanced and polished my skills further and helped me in understanding more about the tools required for each craft work. It has facilitated me in doing my hobby in a more organized way regarding its different aspects such as quilting, knitting, sewing, painting, etc. and provided me with useful tips and tricks in each section.I liked how easy and stepwise Susan has described each craft such as drawstring bag, fabric covered bins, lampshade which added extra beauty to my room and Fabric Heating Pad which is most effective one for my muscular pain.The book has beautifully described the household stuff that we need on a daily basis like quilt cover, pillow cover, oven mitt etc. which has helped me in saving a few quids.It has provided some fun-loving crafts for kids as well like play mat to make that can help them in boosting their mind and creativity.Thank you for writing this amazing book.

I looked over this book and it looks really interesting. I haven't done any crafting from this book yet but I plan on it after the Christmas holidays. I am looking forward to crafting, which I haven't done yet.

Looks okay but needs more pictures of the craft work

‘Crafting’ by Susan Hollister is a very inspirational book full of many ideas. I love variety of crafting style and pattern. My favourite is picture frame that can be hanging, so it is nice to decorate them as you wish using ribbons, fabrics, buttons or crochet. I also admire colourful wall hangings like Eye of God made from yarn in bright colours. I am also big fan of knitting so I like tips and links how to improve your skills.Also very important for me is homemade jewellery like seashell pendant or painted stones that you can wear or just hanging on the wall. Susan reminds me about my favourite activities when I was a child like preparing scrapbooks with my secrets and pictures. I enjoy ‘Crafting’ and can recommend it to everyone who is looking for new hobby.
