BOOKS


I've had a hard time find the information I was seeking to help me with my mask making, mostly because I didn't know what I was looking for. So, I started collecting books. (I do this with what ever subject I'm into at the moment.) Some of them I've read, others I've skimmed, and still other are collecting dust one my shelves waiting to be picked up. I'm going to list what I have found below in no particular order. Maybe someone will find them helpful.
