Sirrine, Carol. (2010). Cool crafts with old wrappers, cans, and bottles. Mankato, MN: Coughlan Publishing.
Being green is in, and this how-to book is a perfect way to use old candy wrappers, cans, and bottles to make unique jewelry, and other craft items. The book is written clearly for readers from the ages of 9 and above. Each craft is clearly described with step-by-step instructions. Most of the crafts are 4-5 steps, but there are a couple with up to 12 steps. There are color photographs for each craft which contributes greatly, not only to the attractiveness of the book, but also the explanation of each craft. The back of the book has green crafting facts, a glossary, and resources, both book and internet about green crafts and recycling. The index is short, but clear. ( )
