A Must Have

This really is a "must have" book on beading. It really does have something for everyone... from beginning to advanced skills. The photos are absolutely beautiful and I find myself going back time and again to take a closer look at how expertly finished pieces should look! I found the recommendations for notions and tools located in the front of book very helpful in deciding what items to purchase to get started.

To me this is more than just a great instructional book on beading... it is interesting, easy reading full of enthusiasm and love for the art of beading.
