Quillwork began in Europe around the 13th century as a paper
imitation of gold and silver filigree work. In this vintage book,
originally published in 1975, Janet and Alex D Amato have evolved
traditional quilling into a delightful and whimsical craft. They
show you how to make quillwork jewelry, wall-hangings, Christmas
ornaments, gift wrap decorations even quilled Valentines, place
cards, mobiles and paperweights. The materials are so inexpensive
and the techniques so simple, that quillwork is truly a craft for
all ages and budgets. Line drawings and photographs throughout the
book provide inspiration and clarification."

Paint by Sticker is a compelling new craft for all ages, and the
book includes everything you need to create 12 vibrant, full-colour
"paintings"-a dozen illustrated templates printed on perforated
card stock, and 24 pages of stickers to fill in and create the
artwork. The images are rendered in "low-poly," a computer graphics
style using geometric polygon shapes to create a 3-D effect. As in
paint-by-number, each template is divided into hundreds of spaces,
each with a number that corresponds to a particular sticker. Find
the sticker, peel it, and place it in the right space. Add the
next, and the next, and the next-it's an activity that's utterly
absorbing, both in the mindful pleasure of peeling and sticking and
the growing satisfaction of watching a "painting" come to life,
emerging from a flat black-and-white illustration to a dazzling
image with colour, body, spirit. Still life with fruit. A classic
urban landscape. Sunflowers, of course. Two rowboats on a peaceful
lake. A dynamic hummingbird in mid-flight. Each suitable for
framing.

was one of the most prominent ukiyo-e artists. He is best known for
his series of prints The 53 Stations of the Tokaido (1832-1833).
His influence was not limited to Japan. Hiroshige's work influenced
Europe's Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, including Van
Gogh, who copied two of his prints in oil paint.
Two hot trends - paper quilling and mandalas - come together in 30
designs by the co-owner of Quilled Creations. Alli Bartowski
explains basic quilling techniques, from curling and crimping to
scrolling and rolling, while detailed photos show all the shapes
you'll need to make. Feel the calm created by the repetitive
motions as you quill Crimson Flower, Sunset, Peacock and other
