CRAFT is the first project-based magazine dedicated to the renaissance happening within the world of crafts. Celebrating the DIY spirit, CRAFT's goal is to unite, inspire, inform and entertain a growing community of highly imaginative people who are transforming traditional art and crafts with unconventional, unexpected, and even renegade techniques, materials and tools.
The theme for CRAFT Volume 05 is paper. Our Special Section includes articles and projects on paper sculptures, book binding, decorative paper cutting, and paper making. Examples of other non-pulp projects for this issue include: an op-art mirror, a 5-foot bolster-pillow, starting your own sourdough starter, a beaded purse made from a cigar box, and a "sneaky" jacket made with all sorts of secret pockets and compartments.
