I {heart} teeny tiny things. There’s something about miniature handicrafts that are so appealing. That’s why I was so excited to receive the book Microcrafts Tiny Treasures to Make and Share compiled by Margaret McGuire, Alicia Kachmar, Katie Hatz, and friends.
Microcrafts just hit the bookstands a few weeks ago and I’m sure it will be a hit in the crafting community.
The book provides step-by-step instructions for 25 projects. All the projects are designed to be easy and use materials that you probably already have on hand. Like these tiny books – with paper, thread and a few other supplies these would make fun gifts.
Attach a jump ring and you can wear them as jewelry.
Clay, cardboard and twigs is all it takes to make a miniature deer head. Fun!
Scrap fabric? All you need are a few 3 inch pieces to make these adorable owls.
A miniature solar system complete with Pluto the sad {ex-} planet.
All the projects provide a supply list and step-by-step instructions that include patterns, templates and hand-drawn illustrations.
If you haven’t heard of Quirk Books, you should check them out. Their titles are fun and of course, quirky.
Love the tiny notebook idea
