Upcoming Publications
I'm currently working on a new book that I'm very excited about! The title is "The Art and Soul of Recycling". It features 20 high-quality art/craft projects including jewelry, accessories and decorative crafts made from recycled and discard materials like dryer lint, aluminum cans and even fast food packaging. You'll be amazed what you can make from the most mundane materials! Publication is scheduled for Spring 2008.
