I have been really getting into borrowing books from the library lately. Particularly from the craft section.
I highly recommend the following books which I currently have out:
"The Joy of Digital Photography" by Jeff Wignall
"Savouring France" by Georgeanne Brennan
"Graffiti Woman" by Nicholas Ganz
"The New Doll's House Do-it-yourself Book" by Venus & Martin Dodge
"Cloth Doll Artistry" by Barbara Willis
