Cool Crafts with Cardboard and Wrapping Paper: Green Projects for Resourceful Kids

Grab cardboard and wrapping paper to recycle into creative, useful items.  Understandable step-by-step instructions show how to make cartons, bags, envelopes, frames, bulletin board organizers, game boards, and jewelry as well as how to make pressed paper.  The illustrations for the steps of each craft are colorful and clear.  Most crafts can be easily made by upper elementary children with little assistance by adults – except perhaps the pressed paper project.  The glossary includes pronunciation which is helpful for words like “couture” and “decoupage”.  An index and other resources complete this book.
