On the Rippey Library Shelf
Start a new adventure with a project on the cold, snowy and sometimes icy days. The Rippey library has just the books for you in the craft section for adults and young folks.
One book to consider is “Paper to Petal: 75 Whimsical Flowers to Craft by Hand” by Rebecca Thuss and Patrick Farrell with a foreword by Martha Stewart. Another possibility in the juvenile section is “Making Origami Animals Step by Step.”
Come to the library and find just the books for you. ~by Nancy Hanaman
