ISBN: 0-486-41749-2 Language: English Description: Making things out of paper is not only fun, it's personally satisfying and easily affordable. This book shows you how to make a host of attractive, useful, and amusing items out of paper.

By following a few simple directions, art lovers can fashion mobiles, origami figures, and lovely flowers. Youngsters will have fun making paper planes, kites, boats that actually sail, valentines, fans, and greeting cards. Craftworkers will love trying their hand at dolls and dolls' houses, aprons, hats, costumes and masks for parties, lampshades, place mats, gift boxes, and Christmas tree ornaments.

All you need to get started are such simple tools and equipment as scissors, knives, glue, paper clips, and tape; and-depending on the project-such papers as tissue, crepe, cellophane, giftwrap, metallic, newsprint, construction, and cardboard.

Step-by-step diagrams and photos of the finished object accompany each of the nearly 200 projects in this big book of attractive, useful, and amusing items made from paper.
