Folk Art is inspired by different folk cultures, and has a universal, timeless appeal. This decorative tradition, with distinctive patterns and bold motifs, is a rich source of craft ideas for the home. Whether your interest is in metalwork, woodwork, needlework or materials from nature, there are gifts to suit everyone: a painted bridal chest for use in a new home, a fluted sconce to provide subdued lighting, a doll for a little girl or a carved pumpkin for an autumnal centerpiece. Each project is presented with clear, step-by-step instructions and full-color photographs for every stage of the preparation.
