I have a LOT of craft books. Most of them are craft specific, and rarely get pulled off the shelves except for inspiration (this is how I treat my cookbooks, too).. but THIS book.. I keep this one out. The sheer variety of crafts and end products makes it a joy to go through regularly, and I recommend it to all my crafty, geeky, parental, Star Wars lovin' friends!Also if you have a chance to meet Bonnie, the author, at a convention - especially at one of her hands-on crafting demos - Do It!! I don't think of myself as a super-crafty person (me + hot glue gun = danger), but Bonnie makes you feel like all you need in order to be a crafting master are a few googly eyes, a love of Star Wars, and boundless enthusiasm. The projects are cute and cheeky (Chewbacca sock puppets! AT-AT herb gardens!) and her instructions are easy to follow and delivered with wit -- she's like a crafting Yoda, guiding you in your quest to become a Jedi master of action figure wreath making (which is my secret ambition, btw). As an added bonus, this book gives me an excuse to say -- in my best Admiral Akbar voice -- "IT'S A CRAFT!"
What do You think about The Star Wars Craft Book (2011)?
Great ideas for Star Wars love, each page made me smile. Really creative and do-able crafts.

Range of projects none of which seem very well done. Both Yodas don't not look like Yoda.
