Another gorgeous craft book from an unnamed public library’s craft section. (No, as of this writing it was NOT weeded.)

I had no trouble guessing that this was direct from the 1970s.  The harvest colors are a dead giveaway. Everything was harvest gold, avocado green, and some kind of disgusting yellow. (The super groovy font on the cover is also telling.)

I love the idea of recycling every day stuff. However, I don’t like recycling stuff  just so you can make something decorative that will require active dusting on my part.
