Description

When our lives were first turned upside down by Covid—19, we looked for ways to fill the days and lift our spirits. As we were faced with staying at home in order to stay safe, some threw themselves into their work, while others sought creative opportunities in their immediate surroundings. Now, as we inch toward a brighter future and a slow return to normal, we're seeing that the spark of creativity ignited by the pandemic is here to stay, with people continuing to seek simple, affordable, and authentic creative outlets.
Enter Mary Chernoff's Inspire — a book chock—full of simple projects that will encourage readers to express themselves and craft meaningful experiences by recognizing creative opportunities in their immediate surroundings. Organized into twelve chapters on gifting, gardening, dressing, entertaining, and more, Inspire is a collection of insightful stories, creative tips, recipes, and detailed instructions.
