Summary: A great book to get you in the holiday spirit
Review: I have several of Dahlstrom's books and thought this was the best yet. The recipies are similar to what my mom made when I was young and the whole book made me want to get started on Christmas cooking and projects. I made the fruitcake recipe the first night I got the book and my family loved it.

Summary: I Love this Book!!!
Review: I love this book because all of the projects and ideas are so easy to make yet they all turn out so pretty. I work and don't have a lot of time, but I like to make my own gifts and decorations. Simply Christmas has given me so many ideas that I can make quickly. I love the pictures in the book, too. It makes me get in the holiday spirit. I especially like the ornaments you can make with dots of glitter.

Summary: Simply Christmas does Christmas right
Review: Simply Christams is a delightful book filled with absolutely wonderful ideas for christmas. All the crafts are very clever, the pictures are bright and colorful, and the writing is fun and playful. I've made over half of the projects, and almost all of them have recieved praise from my friends. And the best part is, even though the book is named Simply Christmas, it will provide great ideas all year long. Great job!

Review: While Simply Christmas has great photographs and an easy-to-use format, I found that the book's crafts and decorating ideas aren't very original. Most can be found in any other Christmas crafts/decorating book. Also, I think several of the ideas are tacky. Maybe the book just isn't my style. My advice is that you check it out at your local library before buying it.
