Reseña del libro "The Craft Kingdom: DIY and Craft Projects for Kids and Adults (en Inglés)"
Parents everywhere begin questioning: what am I going to do with the kids all summer?! Author and artist Eli Maor knows the best way to keep kids and parents happy is crafting - and it doesn't have to get too fancy to be fun! Maor, a "crafting minimalist," specializes in using what is all around us to create beautiful, fun crafts and DIY projects. With a passion for recycling, upcycling, and just using what you have on hand, Maor creates gorgeous and fun projects from common household objects like toilet paper rolls, fabric scraps, even sticks and twigs from the back yard."If you scan the space which you are sitting at right now, you will find you are surrounded by numerous objects you don't use very often," Maor says. "Those objects can easily be turned into a fun project. There is beauty in appreciating reused items and seeing everything - old and new alike - as art."Crafting and making art is very individual.These moments are completely yours.Even if you don't have access to all of the materials, you can be creative and experiment.If you prefer to use one type of material over the other, or if you prefer glue over sewing, do so. The main purpose is to enjoy it and create your vision at every moment.There is no need for any special skills for the projects in this book.However, those who sell artwork and wish to obtain the maximum results should stick to the projects and supplies as written.
