Everything is made with foil. Of course the Alcoa foil company sponsored putting the book out. :D

Pictured is the cover of the book as well as a kiddie space costume. There is old Christmas crafts, bridal showers, etc. it brought a much needed smile to my face today. If anyone wants to see more projects in the book, let me know. :D

That's amazing! :hearteyes:
Maybe this book is where my Mom got the idea one year, for my little brother's space alien Halloween costume!?

The foil headpiece she made was almost identical to the one in the photo ... though my Mom did it better!! :blush:
