Fun Halloween Crafts with Nice Variety of Projects. Beautiful Vintage Artwork!

My sister loves this Halloween craft book with it's wide variety of projects and vintage artwork. I flipped through the book and saw some projects that interested me too. Overall a nice addition to any craft book collection. Appreciate the reviews pointing out percentage errors to enlarge the images for the projects and the suggested corrections.

Wonderful vintage appeal

Vintage Halloween items make my heart go pitter patter but unfortunately my wallet can't keep up with the ever-growing prices for true vintage. Luckily, Bethany Lowe's Folk Art Halloween is here to give me plenty of crafting ideas that revel in vintage Halloween ephemera. The cover photo is the hardest project but there are many other easier projects that are just as interesting. I am starting on the log cabin style pillow today. One of the best parts of the book is the inclusion of clip art from the early 1900s for use in recreating gorgeous invitations, post cards, and decorations using just a copier. The projects provided are interesting but better yet, they are inspiring - this book has revved up my creative engine for creating Halloween crafts this year.

Great Book for Halloween Decor Crafts!

This is a fantastic book at a great price. I have never heard of Bethany Lowe before but I bought this book based on the fact that it was a top seller in the seasonal section. I am not disappointed. This book is fully illustrated in color with in-depth instructions, patterns and reproducible vintage Halloween pictures. Don't be misled by the cover thinking that you are going to have to make complicated witches from paper mache. There are many easy projects that will make your Halloween decor stand out from the rest!

For Bethany Lowe fans

If you are a fan of B. Lowe and love crafting then this book may be for you. I was looking for some inspiration and bought this little book hoping it would help, and it lived up to my hopes and expectations. The book is full of vintage graphics to be photocopied for the projects and the projects are cute and whimsical as to be expected from Bethany. I am totally pleased with with this purchase and hope she comes out with similar offerings for other holidays.
