CRAFTS
Decorative paper cutting using a single sheet of paper produces
lacy silhouettes. Melichson's very elaborate designs draw on
religious and ethnic motifs from Mediterranean countries and take
some practice to draw out and execute. Templates that may be
photocopied and traced are provided for less-intricate
projects. - Library Journal, Oct 15, 2009
