Customer Reviews

I am so happy that I purchased this book!

This book is well written and easy to read. It begins by explaining the color wheel, how to use it, and other methods for choosing the perfect colors for your craft. It then guides you through selecting containers or forms, choosing the best flowers, dyeing and drying them. Later, it provides craft examples and explanations written in a recipe-like style, complete with ingredients and directions. If you would like to make your own bow, it also walks you through the process step by step. This book has become a permanent part of my library, and I believe it will be a welcome addition to yours as well.
