Personal comments:

Personally, I'm a Martha Stewart fan, been following her TV program for years and never have enough of it! Most of the crafts are really resourceful and easy to make, I'll definitely enjoy making some of the crafts with my children. The ideas are refreshing and the outcome of the crafts are utterly adorable, kids will definitely love it and I'm all ready to whoa my future guests with some of the idea in this book.

I rated this book 5 out of 5 stars, cause it simply amazing!
