Product Description
The Big-Ass Book of Crafts is packed with ideas for sprucing up your living space; concocting fabulous, all-natural body products; designing your own unique stationery; and creating countless other crafts that will convince your friends and loved ones that you're the secret love child of Martha Stewart (only much, much cooler).

Forget crocheted doilies and itchy knit sweaters -- TLC's While You Were Out top designer Mark Montano has created stylish and imaginative projects that range from a Warhol-esque Ultrasuede iPod case to photo-adorned boxer shorts to African mask patio chairs to wooden night-light boxes. Divided into sections that include Outdoorsy (ideas to enhance your backyard), Dishing It Out (decorating plates using different techniques), You've Been Framed (innovative picture framing ideas), and Can I Have a Light? (creating and decorating lamps, lanterns, and chandeliers), it's as entertaining to read as it is endlessly inspiring. With more than one hundred and fifty inventive and fun projects, The Big-Ass Book of Crafts is the perfect activity book for readers of every mood, budget, and skill level.

3 out of 5 stars Good book, weird style.   November 9, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The guy who wrote this book has really weird style. Everything is like mexican day of the dead skulls which is cool but not if you were looking for really cool unique interesting crafts. Maybe its just me but I was a little let down by his overall style and how weird it was.


5 out of 5 stars Great Craft Book!   November 7, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I'm very new to crafting, and this book is perfect for me! Plus I'm giving it as a gift to friends of mine that are also interested in crafting. Smart fun projects, with lots of instructions. I have gotten so many ideas from this book. They are so flexible I can put my own style into every project. Yes there is an example of how to make an art project from beans. I would never use beans, but beads from old necklaces, or other random things I have around the home. Very creative book and I recommend to anyone!


5 out of 5 stars great book!   November 3, 2008
Love this book! I have already made a couple things out of it and there are so many more I am going to make. Great buy!


5 out of 5 stars Incredible   September 20, 2008
This book has given me so much inspiration! Not only are the ideas in the book great, but they make you think outside the box and come up with ideas of your own. I'm not usually very good at the craft scene but this book makes it easy to make something look cool. GET IT!


5 out of 5 stars Crafting couldn't be easier   September 12, 2008
I never buy books. I'm a library freak. But after skimming thru this one at a Borders I had to have it. I read thru the whole book in one sitting. It's a great read because Mark puts a lot of his personality into his book which makes it a lot of fun. I really enjoyed the office boredom section as I get that a lot and there's great little ideas to update your office space. Now I won't lie. This book is kitchy but that's my style so I loved everything in here. I started with 2 different crafts and I'll be trying out 2 more tonight. So far it's been really easy and a lot of fun. Definitely something you can do with a child or with your girlfriends one night. Buy it you'll love it.
