Backcountry Betty: Crafting with Style : Nature-Inspired Projects

* Love the outdoors? Love crafts? This is for you.
* Use items found outdoors to make fun, inexpensive crafts

Turn those outdoor treasures you brought home from your last camping trip into something cool. With Jennifer Worick's latest installment of craft genius, a hike in the park becomes a whole new creative adventure. From Tiki Torches to Pebble Pendants, you'll never lack for quick, easy, and sustainable projects made from outdoor flotsam -- bark, pinecones, rocks, flowers, feathers and more.

Divided into habitats ranging from suburban backyards to the ocean shore, each project features items found in nature and adheres to the "leave no trace" ethic. Not one to exclude the city folk, Worick includes a chapter on the urban jungle, repurposing city-found items into unique handmade crafts.
