Booktopia Comments


If you are already a regular crafter/artist/creator and have the occasional drought of imaginative juices - this is the book you have been looking for. The 52 ideas here are not didactic, they are rather exercises in provoking your mind, unblocking any dams that may have built up in the nerve endings of your brain, and (to continue the water metaphor) allowing the flow to burst forth in as many directions as possible. The projects are as diverse as creating an inspirational feature wall in your own home, to designing a 'figureless' self-portrait (ie one containing objects and symbols that represent your character rather than your appearance). Each project inspires a range of alternatives, each with the motivational and emotional impact of the original. Highly recommended for anyone who has recently found themselves in a creative rut.
Product Description
Remember when you were a child, and would happily spend hours creating a collage to present to your mum and dad?

Children are often happiest when left alone with creative materials - they let their imagination take over and come up with some wonderful ideas. But as we grow up, we often lose touch with our creative side as 'real' life takes over and we find we have no time to do the washing up, let alone sit down and create something beautiful just for its own sake.

Creativity doesn't just fade away though, and increasingly people are turning back to their favourite childhood arts and crafts skills in order to relax and rediscover themselves. Crafting Creativity is the perfect handbook for anyone looking to expand or re-awaken their creative side, and is packed with inspiring ideas and advice for creating something really special, whatever you're into - the only limits to what you can create are those in your imagination! Simply brilliant.
