Quick & Simple Jewelry Beading for Beginners

Leisure Arts is the premier name for great crafting project books. Quick & Simple Jewelry Beading for Beginners has 14 easy-to-make, beautiful beaded works. It also includes technique guides and steps for the newer jewelry makers.



I enjoy the way the book is formatted because it focuses on the projects you can start making right away. Each project has a full color photo so you know what the resulting look will be. The step-by-step photos are full color, as well, and show the minute details magnified. Of all the projects, I especially love the Focal Pendant (pg. 22) because it is modern and looks store-bought.



Another great addition to the book are the extra project ideas. These small boxes on the project pages, help to inspire even more projects from looking through the book. This means the book can serve as a stepping off ground for many more works of art. 



This is a wonderful book for those just starting to make jewelry or those looking for new, simple project ideas.
