Inspirational Books

When it comes to Craft or Cookbooks, I completely believe in the saying, Don't judge a book by it's cover. I have never bought a book online with out seeing it first in a bookstore, I find that the brief descriptions on the sites to be completely useless. J1 and J3 will probably say that it is because I skim read! And because of skim reading, I like my craft books filled with images, especially instructional imagery. As for cookbooks, I've only started reading beyond the ingredients, cooktime and temperature portions. Who would have thought that the instructions actually served a purpose! tee-hee.

Here are some of my favourite crafting books at the moment.
