Kitschy Crafts. A Celebration of Overlooked 20th-Century Crafts.

By Jo Packham & Matt Shay

It is review day and today’s book is far out, man. Kitschy Crafts focuses on the fads of the 1950s – 1970s and invites you to “open your mind and heart to a little bit of kitsch” (p. 8). My mind and heart feel pretty jazzed right now. Beautiful retro photographs are paired with wonderful typefaces and lingo that keeps it all real, so you won’t get beat feet with this fab read.
