Not a "How To" Book February 25, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is nice to look at and does give you some ideas about making your own fairy houses, but doesn't do anything in the way of "how to". In fact, there isn't much text at all. It would have been nice to know more about the project that inspired the book.
poor design February 21, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I found this book to be inspiring when it came to the beautiful fairy houses depicted, but I have to agree with another reviewer, in that the photo quality is quite poor. The photo quality really takes away from the book and the book design is unappealing. There are annoying feathered borders on photos on graded colour backgrounds which is really distracting to the eye. It looks like the photographer used a macro lens with improper settings or without a tripod, either way most closeup photos are out of focus likely from using a shutter speed too low. I recommend a new edition with a different layout and better photography....then it would be spectacular. Overall, I was disappointed and hope they put out a better edition....this book could be a real gem.
Nice idea, but too small January 14, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The idea behind the book, photographs of adorable houses built for fairies out of natural materials, is wonderful, but I found that the pictures were too small for my daughter to get too excited about. In future editions, I hope the authors/publisher will consider enlarging the photos and adding more text.
Fairy HOuses December 2, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I liked this book, but I don't think that when I start building Faerie Houses that they will neccessarily look like the ones in this book, in fact, I'm fairly certain they won't. But I did get a couple ideas from the book that may or may not help when me and a friend start production on our houses.
OUCH!! These photos are hurting my eyes! November 26, 2007 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Okay, I am not one to usually write a review,( although, I read them all the time! ) . . . However, I feel it necessary to inform those of you contemplating buying this book to PLEASE- first go look at it at your local bookstore. I am saying this b/c in the copy I received over 3/4's of the photos are OUT OF FOCUS!!! I can't really even tell you much about the book's subject matter etc., b/c flipping through this book literally hurt my eyes too much. I bought this for my son for the holidays, however, I am sending it right back b/c of its poor quality!
