Review - Lettering for Absolute Beginners by Danielle Stringer

This short book shows a kind of 'painting' letters to make them look like calligraphy along with a number of projects you can do, such as painting on a plate or on wood or in your bible.  I really like this idea as I'm not all that interested in learning calligraphy but would like to add pretty lettering to various projects.  However, I wish the author had shown more projects that were more practice-ish (maybe bullet journal-ish?) and less some fancy item that you could only hang on your wall.  Additionally, although the examples looked very pretty, I did not feel like I would ever do any of them.   And there is definitely a Christian slant for those who want that or are bothered by it.
