This book is delightfully different.   It is unavoidably motivating for mums with a retro inspired crafty itch.

While there are many gorgeous crafty books that I find generally inspiring, Vintage Craft Projects has really whipped that inspiration into something far more focussed and intentional.    As in the title, this is a true workshop.


The projects are not lightly  crafty….they  are simple,  though often require specific materials and skills  that achieve brilliant results.  Ican’t wait to get started, but I need a few  particular tools I don’t have in the kids’ craft cupboard…but when I do get started…whoaa!  stand back!

Cathy Callahan is a talented woman inspired by  crafts from the 60s and 70s.  She gives them a fresh approach…from  macramé, appliqué, decoupagé, and more!

With an eye toward style, not kitsch, superstar contributors including Diane Gilleland, Jill Bliss, and Derek Fagerstrom and Lauren Smith offer their unique interpretations on 24 vintage projects.

Brimming with inspiration shots straight from Callahan’s vintage craft books, colour photographs of the finished projects, profiles of the original crafters, and tidbits about this unforgettable era, this spirited book makes vintage crafts perfectly stylish for today.
Plus, it’s easy to get started with step-by-step instructions, how-to illustrations, perforated template pages, and a handy back pocket.
