Collecting, Displaying & Making Crafts of the Past

All things vintage, all things retro, all things FUN!
This is a definitive guide to the fun and quirky world of retro crafts. Written by Suzie Millions, a diva of the style, it’s jam-packed with history and wonderful images from vintage pamphlets, collections, and flea market hunts. Everything memorable is included, from the ridiculous to the sublime, along with the lowdown on collecting, Junking 101, and creating a crafting group. Forty-nine retro-inspired projects run the gamut form glitter frames and matchbox purses to bottle cap men and teacup ladies, plus lovable Plastic Flower Pixies. Variations and creative suggestions will keep readers inspired.
