Dude Crafts
DUDE CRAFTS: The Man’s Guide to Practical Projects, Backyard Ballistics, and Glorious Gags is a craft book like no other, featuring 50+ slightly twisted, mostly useful, and always interesting, projects.
My 8-year-old boy grabbed this review book as soon as it arrived. He read this book for bed time reading for 3 nights in a row. He loved it! The pranks were especially appealing to him. I am not watching where I sit and living in fear. (DIY chair horn Prank)
This book is a great DIY book for anyone Dude or Dudette who wants to DIY something a little different, There are no floral crowns or plushie toys in this book and that is why it is such a fun and unique book. Whilst this book is aimed at the older DUDE I do think this book is perfect for teenage boys who still want to create but need something a little less floral. I find around the age of 12 the boys art projects and craft projects stop coming home and I think that creativity is something that you don’t just grow out of when you become a man.
How about a flask made out of a baby doll and a front-harness baby carrier (perfect for trick or treating)? Ever want to outfit a co-worker’s office chair with an air horn? Re-purpose an electric saw into a cocktail blender? Or make a unique tool holder using PVC pipe and scrap wood? Ranging from the smart and useful, to the comical and possibly dangerous, all the projects are unique, fun, and easy to make.
