When it comes to dishing out all there is to know about living a creative life, Pip Lincolne is certainly your go-to woman. She's the author of several creative titles and the talent behind popular blog Meet Me at Mike's. She is also the founder of multiple inspiring projects, including worldwide craft group Brown Owls and the eMag series The Good Stuff Guide.

For some, stumbling upon Pip Lincolne's book, Craft for the Soul, might seem a bit like discovering a rare gem. Sure, there are plenty of books about creativity, as well as numerous books filled with cute craft projects, but Lincolne has seamlessly blended the two to produce a book that is bursting with all things creative. Nestled among her down-to-earth advice about morning rituals, keeping active for creativity's sake, and how to constantly generate ideas (among plenty of other topics), you'll also find her favorite delicious recipes, along with adorable illustrations, inspiring quotes, and crafty DIY projects.

The author stresses that each and every one of us are capable of filling our day-to-day lives with more creativity, happiness, and fun. And for those of you thinking you don't have a creative bone in your bodies - the pang of inspiration you feel every time you turn a page will certainly have you thinking otherwise! - Melanie Doncas
