London: Tea Time in Wonderland

The title stops you in your tracks, puts a smile on your face. You are awesome. When is the last time your heard that? And so you stop, leaf through the book, loving the rich cardboard cover, the touch of neon in the text. The craft ideas play on natural textures -  wood, thread, blackboard paint… yet it keeps a modern vision, lovely angles, bright hues. The explanations are kept simple, with just the right amount of details and anyone -yes, even the clumsy me – can manage these and are echoed in gorgeous drawings too. They all can be done with kids, a great rainy day project. In seconds, you so want to make wooden medal brooches, doodle on jars, turn enveloppes into notebooks… A very refreshing book with -finally!- new ideas and not recycled ones, adding confettis of happiness to the house.
