Media Reviews
'The beautiful photographs and easy-to-follow instructions are a perfect introduction to making home-made presents... there are some real winners in here, including S'More bars, Black Fores Whoopie Pies, Diva Shortbread and Turkish Delight'-Mumtopia Blogspot 'A beautifully illustrated guide to making a variety of gifts and to packaging them too -you can cut your budget for presents in half, and still leave your recipients feeling more spoilt and appeciated than ever.' The Limerick Post 'The great thing about all of the ideas is that they are often just a little bit out of the ordinary, and they always have that 'mmm, what a treat' quality, that's so important for home made gifts. I particularly like the chapter on packaging. I am totally at a loss with cardboard, ribbon and gift tags, but armed with the brilliant instructions here (there are loads of photos), I think that even I could produce some stylish gift boxes' www.veryberryhandmade.co.uk
