Making Things

“Very scrappy and inspiring!”

“This is the book where I learned to make masu boxes which you can then use to organize your junk drawer! Also there are so many other great crafts & ideas in this book. Erin Boyle, the author, also notably wrote one of the only books on organizing I think is worth reading, Simple Matters.”

“A charming book of things to make and craft brought to you by Erin Boyle and Rose Pearlman. It’s really so much more than a craft books. It’s a way of looking at what you already have and what you can make from it plus a lot of different techniques- finger knitting, origami box-making, ways of making string/yarn, etc. I return to this book again and again for ideas on things to make for people’s birthdays, gift-giving, or even basic skills to teach to Girl Scouts! I reference it a lot when I want to find a crafty but chic way of packaging or wrapping a gift. A lot of craft books have some one-offs that might be fun for a minute, but can often require purchasing things you don’t need or excess mess and not enough return on your investment. I think everyone who enjoys making things with their hands should get a copy! And it just has so many ideas for teaching techniques to kids!”

“I wrote this book. Recommending it is both compulsory and genuine!”

“This book is craft therapy and I love it dearly”
