Cultural historians of the future will have a field day with books like 'Making Stuff'. The rise of DIY crafts has grown out of the unprecedented glut of global manufacturing capacity. In an era when any number of nameless, faceless factories in the Far East can whip up every conceivable consumer product, it's not surprising that the tide is turning against mass production.
Boosted by an online movement that has turned craft into a burgeoning international scene, 'Making Stuff' encourages you to break out the button box and get busy with a needle and thread. There's even a recipe for home-made soap.
