3 out of 5 stars NOT ENOUGH FOR THE BUCKS!   June 29, 2008

I think this book was written in a decent fashion. I bought it as a gift for my sister before we went on our Alaskan cruise. The directions and visuals were pretty good. However, the "book" does look like it was hand-made and it definitely wasn't worth the money. This "book" cost WAY too much. It wasn't worth it!

3 out of 5 stars Throwing in the towel   May 29, 2007

I agree with other reviewers about the homemade quality of the book. The book itself was VERY thin and not what I expected for the $14+ spent on it. It's NOT the worst book on towel origami but not the best either. I'd place it somewhere in the middle. The author does explain things well so I have to give her some credit for that. Think the main disappointment was the thin and homemade quality of it. Wasn't the best first impression when I opened the box. I still find learning towel origami by the DVDs on the market the easier way to go. Looking at photos or illustrations in a book with a lot of text doesn't do it for me when learning the visual art of towel origami. I need to see it in action.


3 out of 5 stars Looked a little cheap...   May 16, 2007

When I got this book it looked like some unprofessional company had made it. The book was bound only by sprial and the pictures were not in color. I would recommend not getting this book unless you really want to spend the money. The Lost Art of towel folding was a far better purchase.


4 out of 5 stars Greatest romantic idea   May 13, 2007

I picked this up to surprise my wife every morning ! Makes her feel like she's on holidays every day. She looks forward to jumping in the shower every day just to see what critter awaits her that day. Only reason I rated a little lower was due to the fact the illustrations are a bit vague. But a great book just the same.
