As an artist and graphic designer who designs things to fill frames for a living, I notice them everywhere – Instagram, Pinterest, and stylish homes everywhere. I’m always looking for fun ideas for home decor and that’s where this delightful and simple crafting book comes in handy. It offers 15 design projects that can be followed to the letter — to great effect — or by applying this or that technique or approach.

It’s very helpful. The book is laid out very clearly, with photos accompanying each brief instruction. The projects, overall, are pretty straightforward, and most could be accomplished in just a couple hours or so. Several projects include objects, like pressed flowers or printed posters, that can be displayed within the frames. Very handy and helpful!
