Nature Crafts With A Microwave: Over 80 Projects

Dried materials lend themselves to any number of crafts, but they generally take so long to dry or are so expensive to purchase pre-dried that some crafters overlook them. Fortunately there is an alternative--armed with this book and your microwave oven, you can preserve all sorts of natural materials quickly and with relative ease, not only flowers but fruits, vegetables, grasses, nuts, seeds, mosses, and even popcorn. Once you've mastered microwave drying, proceed to the book's nicely handled project section for ideas on using the elements in wreaths, sachets, wall hangings, baskets, and more.
