Three New Book Reviews!

Three new book reviews for The Naughty Secretary Club: The Working Girls Guide to Handmade Jewelry hot off the presses...


Check out Tammy Powley's review over at About.com Jewelry Making...

This book is made to tickle your funny bone but also get you to start thinking creatively at the same time while you learn some techniques that aren't necessarily difficult but also aren't what you normally might think about when it comes to jewelry making.


My lovely co-host for the book release party Rachel Hobson of Average Jane Crafter wrote a book review that made me beam with pride. Plus this one has lots of pictures from the book!

Let's talk physical attributes: The book is square - it's a great size, and its colorful, crazy, kitschy design is off-the-charts fun.



The amazing Barbe Saint John whipped up a review on her blog as well as her blog for Craft Gossip.

This first glance is just the tip of the color saturated iceburg that awaits you inside its glossy covers-so much so, my dog and I made an emergency pitstop at Starbucks so I could sit and go thru this book right there and then.

    Thanks for the shout-out! I loved reading the book and reviewing it.

    I also noticed that my crafty pal, Diane, at CraftyPod reviewed it yesterday, too!

    okay, this is a bit off-topic but i'm in a hurry, but Sister Diane alerted me to your new book and I can't WAIT to get it! I wrote to HGTV and I said, where the heck is Craft Lab?! And they said, 'Craft Lab is on hiatus'. Usually a euphemism. So I said, well, GET IT BACK.

    (i'm a charmer)

    Anyway, and NOW I see you have a new BOOK, and maybe THAT's why you aren't showing me how to do neat-o stuff!

    okay, your book's on my wish list because my birthday's coming up.

    rock on.
