While I would have preferred to see photos of everything, there were more than enough on the cover and inside, plus plenty of good illustrations to help me make even the most challenging of the crafts I've tried so far. And there are soooo many neat ideas in this book. Some really are simple enough for my kids but there are several that I never would have thought to try myself and I'm pretty crafty.

I made the coolest "Pointy Hat" using the embossed velvet technique. My friends all want me to make them pointy hats now! And I never would have tried stone carving or drum making without this book.

I also love all the background on the crafts and the meditations, exercises, spells, and even songs. It's become one of my favorite craft books already!

There are a lot of ideas but they are mostly very simple sort of Middle-school crafts and there are no color photos. About 90% of the projects have no photo or plan at all.
