The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
Don't know what to give Grandma and Cousin Sam for their birthdays? Tired of fighting crowds when you're Christmas shopping? Wish you hadn't spent the last of your allowance on that toy for your little sister? Try making your own presents!
Tie-dye shirts and workshop shelves, Chanukah candleholders and Christmas wreaths, puppets, pillows and puzzles –here are handsome and useful gifts, for all ages and all occasions, that are fun to make and fun to give.
The instructions are simple and easy to follow; the materials usually cost less than one dollar, and often nothing at all; the results will be truly personal, reflecting your tastes and interests and those of the person for whom the present is made.
In 1962 Esther Hautzig wrote Let's Make Presents, and thousands of boys and girls learned that it is more enjoyable and more creative to make gifts than to buy them. Now, in Let's Make More Presents, she guides readers in the creation of seventy new gifts for fortunate adults, teenagers and young children.
