Friday Guest Feature – Shape Book Craft Tutorial

shape book

I absolutely love this clever craft tutorial by Cheeky Magpie.  An old book is given new life in the form of a fun apple to display.  The branch, used as the stem of the apple, is a great natural feature for depicting the fruit.

This is one of those crafts that would be fun to do and that requires very little, if any, expense.  Just find an old paperback book, that has seen it’s better day, and try this fun craft project.

To get all of the details and a free craft tutorial, click on the link and visit Cheeky Magpie’s site.
