Plenty of imaginative projects for making and personalizing shelving are provided in this instructional guide. Le Van (Hardware Style) begins with a review of hardware, shelf boards, and installation. From there, she moves on to discussing projects for decorating prefabricated shelves, using commercial shelving in unique ways, and creating shelves from everyday items such as watering cans, buckets, and skateboards. Her clear, well-written instructions are accompanied by a color photograph of the completed project that will inspire both experienced and amateur crafters. Recommended for midsize to large public library collections. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.Book Details
