Customer Reviews

I highly recommend this series

If you're a serious beader, then this series is a must have. The designs in this book are totally different than your typical bead books. There's quite a few challenging designs that will leave you feeling satisfied once the projects are complete. I wish there were more bead design books like this one!

A beading Musthave

This is the best collection, I've see so far. I have beaded the pendant in the book cover 5 times in 5 different colors. I just love it.

If you liked the previous 2 books....

this will not disappoint you either! Her first book was the first I ever bought, when I started beading. Loved it, then loved the second one, and third one is no different. If you're a beginner it might take you a little longer to figure out her instuctions, but once you pass that, it is easy to follow.

Beads Concerto in English!

Just like the other 2 Bead Fantasies books, this is a English version of one of Ms. Samejima's Japanese language beading books. In Japan, the book is called Beads Concerto & I had always admired it. Diagrams show thread paths, and bead layout. This book is appropriate for the intermediate beader.

Bead Fantasies III

I have bought many (around 75) beading books over the past two years. I must say, for me, the Bead Fantasies series (also II and III) is, by far, the very best beading project book. Beautiful, not difficult, projects throughout. Generally, one will find one or two nice projects in a book. This series is definately a winner in my books. The price is very reasonable too.
