Reviews for Crafting with Herbs: Do-It-Yourself Botanical Decor, Beauty Products, Kitchen Essentials, and More

"""Herbs and edible flowers have wonderful benefits far beyond their culinary or medicinal uses, as author Debbie Wolfe shows us in her new book, Crafting with Herbs. She walks the reader through expertly photographed step-by-step instructions to make visually gorgeous wreaths and centerpieces, and aromatic face scrubs and hair rinses. We learn how to make beautiful bouquet garni, confetti cones, and smudge sticks—all of which capitalize on the aromatic and visual beauty of the various herbs. The projects are relatable and functional while celebrating the many uses for herbs beyond flavoring a sauce. —Lisa Steele, author of Fresh Eggs Daily and Gardening with Chickens ""Debbie Wolfe's green thumb and boundless creativity have led to an extensive and exciting collection of garden projects. Her photos alone will inspire readers to get their hands dirty!"" —Kathleen Corlett, Editor in Chief at BobVila.com, Acton Media ""Debbie has done it again! Crafting with Herbs is filled with DIY projects for every area of the home! You will find yourself excited to make the next herbal craft after you see the beautiful photography throughout the book!"" —Kasey Schwartz, All Things Mamma, Author of Essential Oils for a Clean and Healthy Home. ""This fun book shows how to make 30 craft projects from fresh herbs collected from your garden. There are lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) neck wraps, miniature herb wreaths that act as tea bags, and eco-friendly confetti made with colorful, dried herb flowers. Hidden messages can be sent with small herb bouquets called 'tussie-mussies' that are based on each herb’s meaning. Recipes cover making herbal oils and scrubs, honeys, pastes, hair rinse, and salve. Brief descriptions highlight 14 of the herbs used in the projects with a few medicinal and culinary uses along with gardening stats. Wolfe wrote DIY Garden Projects and Crafts and writes for home repair retailers like Bob Vila."" —Kathi Keville, American Herb Association Quarterly Director. "
