Description

Tinkered Treasures is a how-to craft book that demonstrates how on a regular basis mundane items will also be transformed into charming and unique items. Elyse Major has created over 35 projects, the use of objects that can easily be found or that you might already have. She refers to these transformations as ‘tinkering’ as it perfectly describes her style of embellishing, repurposing and altering things without the need for any specialist tools and equipment or techniques. Tinkering isn’t about constructing – it’s about appreciating the flaws but seeing the potential in little details. Each craft project in this book is designed for complete beginners – there are no particular skills involved. Measuring steadily gives way to estimating and the various simple techniques are repeated from project to project. The book shows how to tinker all sorts of household and craft items to create a range of gorgeous gifts, treasures and trinkets, from clothespin dolls and tiny picture frames to favour baskets, bunting, fabric garlands, bookmarks and more. In case you are new to crafting, have no fear because simple instructions at the side of a tools and techniques section are provided. All of the projects in this book will also be adapted to your own tastes – with a simple colour or pattern change you’ll create items to suit any style or home.
