About this product

Product Information

For nearly 20 years, home crafters have turned to the pages of Martha Stewart Living for all kinds of crafts projects, each presented in the magazine's inimitable style. Now, the best of those projects, including step-by-step instructions and full-color photographs, have been collected into a single encyclopedia. Organized by topic from A to Z, Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts contains complete instructions and brief histories for more than 30 techniques, detailed descriptions of the necessary tools and materials, and easy-to-copy templates. Martha and her team of crafts editors guide readers through each subject, from botanical pressing and decoupage to rubber stamping and wreaths, with characteristic clarity and unparalleled attention to detail. Crafters of all skill and experience levels will appreciate the many variations presented for each technique. For example, candlemaking presents a comprehensive array of poured, rolled, and cutout candles, including instructions for making your own one-of-a-kind rubber candle molds, floating candles, sand candles, and more. Each craft in the book takes on charming new dimensions with innovations that could come only from the team behind Martha Stewart Living. In addition, each entry in Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts is chock-full of tips and advice. Handy glossaries in the entries-such as a comprehensive gem glossary, a glitter glossary, and a color glossary for making tinted wax-are valuable references that crafters will refer to again and again. What's more, the Tools and Materials section outlines the best essential supplies that every crafter needs to have on hand, and the Sources pages clue readers in to the vendors and suppliers that the magazine's crafts editors rely on most. Filled with solid technical know-how, and presented with gorgeous color photographs, this handy guide can be read page by page and kept as a lasting reference by crafters and artisans alike.

Bible For Crafters
i was visiting my daughter and used this book to do crafts with my grandkids. We learned to make bead bugs and flowers following simple directions and illustrations. my seven year old grandaughter, on her own, made six little, cute bugs before i left. Right then and there i decided to purchase this book. I was able to look up this wonderful craft dictionary on ebay and it was VERY affordable for me. The projects in this book are endless and exciting for a crafting gramma like me. Some i only dream about, like marbling, but others are very doable and very exciting. Illustrations in this big book of crafts are excellent, as are the clear and concise directions. Crafts available are paper crafts, paper and clother flowers, polymer clay projects, sewing projects, and many more craft projects that are way too numerous to mention. Suffice it tosay that this craft Bible has something for everone that enjoys doing crafts. This book is a must have if you are a crafter.Read full review

Amazing craft reference book for your home library.
I was doing a couple of craft projects which I was not very familiar with and had checked out 13 books from my local library. This Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts was one of those books and it was such a great book I just had to have one for my personal home library. I began to do some research to buy one and when I checked eBay, the prices were better than anywhere else that I looked, so I ordered one. I love this product. The pictures are wonderful as well as the information so I have had no trouble in completing my craft projects. This book is a must have for crafters, old and young alike. There is so much information in this one book that I was amazed.

A great book with lots of craft ideas for young and old!
I'd borrowed this book from my local library just to find a few projects to make after I'd become an empty-nester. Low and behold, I loved the book so much I had to buy it! I've made soaps, bath salts, and other projects for myself as well as for gifts, and I'll eventually use many of Martha's ideas for the future spa business I'll someday own and grow. The book is a must if you like do-it-yourself projects made with love; it's a great addition to any person's library with projects for young and old.
