How to Make Something from Nothing
By Paul Ford
Cuttings from one of the best craft books ever.
In my family, How to Make Something from Nothing, by Frank B. Griffith and Rubye [sic] Mae Griffith, is a legendary artifact. It's, at first glance, a standard “craft ideas” book, but once you begin to read it, you realize that every single craft is the most heinous piece of shit imaginable. When I borrowed this book from my mother, she made me promise to give it back, so in interest of keeping my favorite crafts, over the next month I'm going to introduce a few of my favorites here, with occasional interjections in the descriptions, before I have to give the book back to Mom.
