Reviews

Blake and Milne explain how to construct new and recycle old paper; create books, cards, and frames; and embellish boxes. Emphasis is on earth-friendly actions, including using old papers, employing household items (from turmeric to tea) for dyes, and rescuing boxes and frames. An eight-page gallery at the end, in addition to samples pictured throughout the text, helps make their vision real. Barbara Jacobs
