Book Reviews of Crafty Mama: Makes 49 Fast, Fabulous, Foolproof (Baby & Toddler) Projects

Book Review: Creative Crafts Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is fantastic. I saw the author on the local news and she seemed brillant, crafty and fabulously fun. The ideas are easy to do and adorable. A great gift for mom and baby!

an update: my 9 year old daughter and I just made a new twin fleece patchwork blanket from the book. It is adorable, she LOVES it, and we had fun making it together. (She also made 2 pillows for her bed). We also decorated a lamps with buttons and trim, per another craft project. My 7 year old son and I made 4 sports themed fleece no-sew pillows. It is very cool that the older kids can do these projects independently as well. Very easy to follow and great ideas. We are going to do picture frames next.
