Book Review & Giveaway: Crafting with Cat Hair (closed)

Crafting with cat hair sounds …well…crazy, right? That’s exactly why I accepted the offer to review the book, Crafting with Cat Hair: Cute Handicrafts to Make with Your Cat. Not to mention cat hair is free, and isn’t that what this blog is supposed to be all about?

 

 
So, let’s talk about Creating Really Awesome Free (cat hair) Things!

 

 
Does cat hair rule your house? Perfect! Don’t vacuum it, please! Send it to me or use it your self to create anyone of the 10 projects found in this book…

The large color pictures really help to explain exactly how to make each craft… All of the crafts revolve around the idea of felting cat hair… I haven’t tried it myself, but it sounds like a simple, inexpensive process… the one thing you need that you probably don’t have at home is a felting needle.

 
I liked this project:
 
 This book is clever and cute… an easy read. Here are tips and tricks for getting the cat hair you need:
 
 

This is my favorite project :) Christmas presents?

The book has helpful and interesting tips throughout… Do you know the difference?

 

and just so you know…

With this book, fur balls are now your friend :)

  5. I follow you already. Unfortunately my cat hats to be brushed, but I may have to work on that if I get this book.

  6. I "like" you on facebook already as well. I am more and more interested in felting, i use so much of it already.

  7. I often joke to my husband about knitting a jumper from our dogs hair (so very soft, so very plentiful)–joking of course. Now I really have seen it all. I need to process how I feel about this, and email my mother-in-law/cat lover. Hilarious!

  8. I follow your site. I would love this book as i have some rabbit fur I have been trying to use in a craft project for a while.

  9. Love it….well SARK said cats would pay the rent if you let them…here is one way :D

  18. Wow that is interesting! We have 4 cats so I could really take on that craft!

  19. oh my goodnessnesses! i need this book :) i have 3 cats and i would love to put some use to the mess around here..hahah

  20. I would love to own this intriguing craft book! I am owned by two furry felines, both of which love to be groomed. I've collected their cat fur and once sent it off to an organization that used cat fur to absorb oil in the ocean when the horrible oil spill occurred in the Gulf Coast. With this book of fun craft projects, I will have a plethora of good uses for all of the cat hair I can collect. Oh and I'll have the best well-groomed kitties on the planet! =^..^=

  26. In our house we have one cat, one dog, one bird, and several fish. The bird is usually sitting on the back of my chair as I'm crafting, the cat is usually at my feet and the dog is usually panting at the door wanting to get in here to carry my goodies outside. The fish? Well, they aren't allowed around my craft table.
