The work in this book ranges from clever and humble personal accessories to unique and important large-scale works of art, including paper art, fashion, jewelry, housewares, interiors, and installations.

Customer Reviews

Not as expected.

This is a picture book. It's unclear what items were upcycled when looking at a photo of a finished project. The caption merely gives a reference number you must look up in the index to find what item was repurposed in the photo. Terrible time waster. Also, mine had a sticker that said it cost $1.59 but I was charged nearly $8. Unable to return.
