Pretty, whimsical book of how I'd wish my house would look for Christmas! Lots of easy projects for all, even kids. Not heavy with the red and green felt nor Christian-themes, but more Nordic-leaning with brighter, lighter colors. Charming and clever.

Good inspiration for crafts to do with kids. Most of the ideas I'd seen before in some form but it had good pictures and, from what I could gather, complete instructions.
