Useful and inspiring submitted by Zekicmom on August 5, 2013, 7:45pm Nicely presented with clear instructions and helpful photographs. These are not quick projects to do on the kitchen table when you have a few minutes here and there. They require space, time, and preparation, but have the potential for something really special.
