Craft Inspirations.....Junk to Treasure!

I've mentioned before that I seek other sources to get inspiration for crafting my "outdoor market" finds to items that you'll want to keep around your house. A lot of that inspiration comes from books and magazines that I put my own personal touch/colors to the finished product.

Well, I've just found a great web site where you can buy craft books on the cheap! We're talking starting prices of $.99!!! Check this out: Book Closeouts

Two that I found particularly good for crafting/painting inspiration was "Paint It!" and "Furniture Facelifts". Just type these titles in their search box and check them out. I did not want to put a link directly to them in case they were already sold out of them (but I'm sure if you browse a little by typing "crafts" in their search box....you'll find more in the painted furniture arena).

Of course, you'll also find great deals on other books that you might want to read also (my fav other than craft books is self help/improvement...lot of work there to be done too!).

The problem with this site is that they also run a store where they sell the same books, so you'll notice, when you come to a title you like, click on it and when the page comes up for that book....in the upper right hand corner, it tells you how many they have in stock. If it's less than 5...you better order right away and keep your fingers crossed that you get it! If you don't....nothing lost. If you do...what a bargain!

They have some great craft books in there that I've looked at in the stores but just couldn't bring myself to pay the hefty price! You're going to have to keep your eye on this site because their inventory changes all the time! Might as well bookmark it for future reference!

So go get inspired!!
