READ THE AMAZING REVIEWS

Calin Duke has written an instructional book on upcycling that is a must to own! The style of the book is whimsical and engaging and the instructions are beautifully simple and clear.

—Tamara

I love this book! The directions are clear and easy to follow; the illustrations are great, and the author’s sense of humor and pizazz really comes through! I also learned a lot about how clothes are made and what happens in “fast fashion” a term I never understood before but now am determined not to participate in! Thank you, Ms Duke- for writing an awesome book that is truly helpful!!
