    Synopsis

    The Big-Ass Book of Crafts is packed with ideas for sprucing up your living space; concocting fabulous, all-natural body products; designing your own unique stationery; and creating countless other crafts that will convince your friends and loved ones that you're the secret love child of Martha Stewart (only much, much cooler).

    Forget crocheted doilies and itchy knit sweaters -- TLC's While You Were Out top designer Mark Montano has created stylish and imaginative projects that range from a Warhol-esque Ultrasuede iPod case to photo-adorned boxer shorts to African mask patio chairs to wooden night-light boxes. Divided into sections that include Outdoorsy (ideas to enhance your backyard), Dishing It Out (decorating plates using different techniques), You've Been Framed (innovative picture framing ideas), and Can I Have a Light? (creating and decorating lamps, lanterns, and chandeliers), it's as entertaining to read as it is endlessly inspiring. With more than one hundred and fifty inventive and fun projects, The Big-Ass Book of Crafts is the perfect activity book for readers of every mood, budget, and skill level.

    July 06, 2009: If you like doing random projects this is the book for you. The ideas in this book just brush the surface of all the things you could do for a reasonable amount of money to decorate around your apartment/house. I couldn't believe how many projects were actually in this book until I started marking the pages of the things I wanted to do... Some of the crafts however look easier than they actually are. But if you want something fun to do with your girlfriends on a Saturday night this book has so many ideas everyone will find something in there they'd enjoy creating!

    June 29, 2009: This book has great projects for any level of crafter. The instructions are simple and easy to understand. It is a fun read too as the author has put some of himself into the book. I love it and enjoy just looking through it as well as making gorgeous gifts for family and friends.
