This book is absolutely stunning! All the colors and designs just blew my mind. There are so many sections I enjoyed, it's hard to pick just one that I loved the most. The color inspiration section was definitely a standout to me, I'm not sure I would match many of the ones I've seen until that moment. Learning about different brushes and color patterns was so inspiring to me.

Easy to follow and experiment with.
Cute templates included.
DIY art that can fit with any decor style.
The perfect gift for your lady friends who dabble in art or are interested. Or you can gift it to yourself and create wonderful artwork for your home and friends.

This book is gorgeous. I love the project ideas and the tips and advice for creating art.

You have GOT to be kidding me. This book goes from the ridiculous to the … insulting. I’m not sure who the intended audience is, but it seems to children under the age of five, and fortunately they won’t be able to read the puerile instructions. I’m being generous by awarding it a full star.

One of the projects is literally drawing a sun - just like the ones kids in kindergarten draw. But wait! You use gold paint here! Ohhh!!

Another is creating a “fashion collage” … by cutting pictures out of magazines and gluing them on paper. But, at least there’s a “tip”: glue down pictures first and then the words. Seriously.

Another helpful tip: if you don’t like the picture provided, cover the whole thing with black paint and “let the paint completely dry, then add a colorful design. We suggest try painting a lightning bolt across it.” I kid you not.

Other projects include preprinted pictures where you are instructed to glue on rhinestones or cover the whole thing with glue and pour glitter on top.

Yes, the photos are great and it’s very colorful. And the Modern Vintage project is a cool idea - with horrible execution. Now, I’ve said something nice.

I think what the creators tried to do was amazing but the end result was not really satisfactory. Because it could've been a lot better. I was excited but ended up being a bit disappointed.
But it might be helpful for the beginners. Like who's really new to all these things. As for me, I kinda already knew these stuff.

If you think you art no good art art but want to be creative then this book is a good place to start. Simple ideas that look fantastic and you CAN make them. Lots of nice gold and glitter I would recommend this book to a young adult. As always these art crafts are directed towards girls / women but you know there are men who like glitz too!

This book is beautiful and has very aesthetically pleasing photographs throughout, however, I didn't love it as much as I had expected. Some of the projects just didn't appeal and some jumped around or didn't have enough details for me to feel like I could complete it to my liking, mainly the more abstract ones that cannot be copied verbatim. There are step by step pictures and instructions, so most of them are simple enough and contain enough visuals that most people would have no trouble following, if the project appeals to them.

An interesting and colourful book aimed at beginners. I was hoping for more advanced techniques and not necessarily so 'girly'.

It would, however, be a suitable gift for some friends and I would recommend this book to them.
