This looks totally doable. I love how straightforward the instructions are, as well as including plenty of examples and variations in what you could make and how you can choose to follow steps. I especially like the inclusion of cinnamon, the paperclip hooks, and the tip of how to prevent injuries and flying pieces when using the wire cutters for if you choose to use that method for hanging certain shapes.
