"A book for all ages that describes Indigenous American artifacts and adornments from a variety of culture areas, tells something about their backgrounds, and then develops contemporary adaptations that are not replicas but designs for today inspired by the original. As part of the vast renewed interest in the Indigenous American, Indigenous American Craft Inspirations first examines the materials and techniques the Indigenous peoples used in their crafts, then outlines in careful detail adaptations for both the beginner and the crafts expert."--.
