Editorials
Library Journal
Similar to Jazz Up Your Junk (LJ 9/15/99), in which Linda Barker beautifies worn and cast-off items, Grigg's book offers projects that require a bit more do-it-yourself skill, such as freehand decorative painting and sewing. The projects, designed to make items look like prized antiques, have helpfully been divided into chapters based on time needed to complete, from "one-hour wonders" to "weekend workovers." The instructions are clearly written but poorly illustrated, making this best suited for experienced crafters. Purchase for larger public library crafting collections.
