I picked this book up because PopSugar

What I liked the Most? the format is amazing

What I liked the Least? none of the crafts appealed to me

Review: While the photography & the set up of the book is amazing, the quality of most the projects is extremely questionable, unfortunately. There are a few items that I'd consider making for TG, but honestly I've seen variations of almost all of these projects on Pinterest. Of the few items I would chose to take try - those directions aren't part of the book but you have to get the enhanced digtal content on your phone or from the Simon and Schuster website.

Simply not my cup of tea.
