New wings For Old Things – Charity Book.

The Children’s Air Ambulance has recently launched a new charity book to help raise funds for its Air Transfer Service.  This book is aptly titled, New Wings for Old Things.  It is a wonderful craft book with a difference providing amazing ideas about how to ‘upcycle’ old furniture and knick knacks.  This is a great way to put your personal mark on just about anything from an old t-shirt to a vase or a piece of furniture you were thinking of getting rid of.  Especially useful are the step by step instructions to help you transform your item into something amazing.

There are more than 20 projects to choose from, all of which are easy to accomplish without the need to go out and purchase expensive materials.  I am just after making a beautiful memo board for my kitchen using an old picture frame that almost ended up in the dump as the glass was broken. With the addition of some material scraps cleverly folded and attached I now have a lovely board which holds post, receipts, photos, etc.  What’s more, it’s unique!

This would make a super Christmas present, especially as crafts and recycling are so on trend at the minute.  In fact, several of the projects in this book would make lovely gifts.

This little gem of a book is available from www.theairambulanceservice.org.uk priced very keenly at £5.99.  Buy it for someone special this Christmas and support a very worthy cause.
