March Book Recommendations
This month’s book recommendations will help you add some fun to your life! You can learn to draw or letter, wrap gifts, get crafty, cook or mix up some clever retro cocktails. Also, you can laugh or simply ponder about the many mysteries of life.
Check out these books and see how many you’d like to add to your family’s library.
The Little Book of Manga Drawing
The Little book of Manga Drawing is great for people who are serious about art and those who like to sketch for fun. Kids and adults can enjoy the book, since there are illustrated tips and techniques to apply to all skill levels.
Part-time Mermaid
Ready for a cute and imaginative book? Then, check out Part-time Mermaid! She is a girl by day and a mermaid by night, and she will encourage an early love of reading and creative thought.
The Little Book of Lettering
Walter Foster books have been helping people create for decades, and I’m enjoying their new, smaller sized books. The Little Book of Lettering can be fun for hobbies, creating cards, addressing envelopes or preparing for a creative career.
What a Swell Party it Was!
What a Swell Party it Was is a fun way to remember and experience the swanky food and drinks of yesteryear. There are actual recipes from old time nightclubs, so you can recreate a retro vibe at home.
Notable recipes:
- Palmer House Oyster Stew
- Waldorf Salad from The Waldorf Astoria
- Peach Melba from The Cotton Club
- Cuba Libre from La Conga
- Baked Alaska from Ciro’s
Vera Bradley Wrapping Paper Books
Are you a Vera Bradley fan? I’ve got several Vera totes and accessories that I use every time I travel. Now, there are brand new Vera Bradley Wrapping Paper books and the possibilities for creativity are endless.
Each book has 20 large fold out sheets of wrapping paper along with gift tags, and, of course, all of the designs are clearly ‘Vera.” You can use the paper to wrap gifts or you can get crafty and use it for whatever projects you dream up!
Irish Wit, Wisdom & Humor
Irish sayings are great all year long, but are timely in March for St. Patrick’s Day.
You’ll find a wide variety of sayings inside Irish Wit, Wisdom and Humor. Some will make you laugh, some will make you think and some will make you cringe.
While I enjoy curling up with a good book, this month most of the books I chose are creative. These books are great for those who want to experience creative activities.
You can have fun by yourself or you can plan for group fun with friends and family.
