Traditional American Crafts

A few weeks ago I went to a used book sale at a local church, where they were selling so many books for soooo cheap. The fiction section was pretty picked-through, but I can always count on these types of sales for some really great antiquing and craft books. This one did not disappoint. One of the books I got was the Better Homes and Gardens Traditional American Crafts. Just flipping through the pages is pretty inspirational, so I thought I'd just show you a few pretty pages.

I'm a huge fan of Americana and crafty decor (obviously) so this is one of my new favorite coffee table books. Want your own? Here ya go.
