Summary: just-- blah
Review: I thought a couple of neat ideas were in this book, but lots were not so intresting. Like the disco ball was fun,but the putting of jewels on every single thing is something that i was not interested in. i mean who wants rhinstones on their calculator?

Summary: This book is pathetic
Review: I wasn't very impressed with this book. It gives the assumpstion that all girls who read it are "crafty girls", and are just the thought of fabric and scissors makes their fingers twitch with excitement. I don't know about you, but I doubt that many girls, especially young adults for whom this book is targeted too, are actually this crafty. So that, of course, means that many projects require complicated sewing, putting together, figuring out how to do- I don't have patience for those kinds of projects! The ideas for projects were nothing very new, and kind of dull and strange... like decorating a calculator with gems and beads, painting a phone green and gluing plastic bugs to it, making a net canopy for your bed with 36 yards of tulle... you get the idea. And, these projects aren't exactly budget-minded, either. Come on, the cost of materials and supplies for many of these projects require you to spend AT LEAST ten dollars just for one project- and in many cases, even more. Another thing that makes this book so bad is that their are no color pictures or step-by-step photos showing how to do the project or even a photo of the finished project- just a poorly-drawn line drawing. Please save your money, and buy a different craft book. Out of all of the good ones out there, this one with it's extremely high price (thirteen bucks for a little-and I mean LITTLE- paperback book), yes, is a RIP-OFF!!

Summary: My Favorite of All
Review: The ideas are fabulous in this little craft book for girls, perfect for slumber or birthday parties or for rainy day activities. It includes a variety of cute craft projects that are simple and snazzy. My only regret is that there aren't any photos of completed projects. It takes a little extra bit of imagination (thats a good thing!)to see if you are on the right track. Other than that, I found it completely delightful and so did my 8-year-old daughter.

Summary: just-- blah
Review: This book is so horribly boring! I read th whole thing. The book's crafts are things that anyone could of thought of. Like putting jewels on a frame. Most of the crafts just say to add jewels to this add jewels to that so call this read a waste of time.

Summary: Great for Any Girl Wanting to Spice Up Her Day
Review: This book was much better than I expected. Upon recieving it, I thought it would be either really weird crafts or the usually hum-drum. I was wrong.Crafty Girl's Cool Stuff book helps you to make cool room decorations, things for lounging at the pool or even things that are just cute. Even if you don't make the crafts in here, they give you lovely ideas to create your own crafts. The reason why I give this book a four star rating however, is that a few of the crafts inside were a little too boppy for me, meaning they were too pink and fuzzy. Either way, it's a good book and I'd recommend to anyone who is looking to spice up any desk area or plain-jane room.

Summary: If you can get it for cheap
Review: This is a good book if you are looking for a jumping off point or a little inspiration. Most of the projects repeat themselves, and they do require a little money (and transportation) for supplies. Also, there are no photographs of the finished projects, which is generally my favorite part of craft books! If you can find it used for cheap, then get it, otherwise I wouldn't bother.

Summary: Outstanding gift for young teenage girls!!!
Review: This is the best gift I've found in a long time for young teenage girls. I've given this book as a gift several times, and the recipients just LOVE it!!! They have a blast trying all the different cool stuff to make in the book.
