Although this leaflet (it can hardly be classified as a book) has some basic information in it, it's pretty lightweight in terms of instruction and projects. There are much more comprehensive books on the market.

I should have paid attention to the number of pages in the book -- that might have been a hint as to just how helpful it would be on the subject.

I am a longtime crocheter, but new to wire and bead crochet. I got many bead crochet books and sat down to figure out where I was going to start and when I got to the filigree bracelets in this book, which were so eyecatching and the book said "make one in a night" and I read the directions and realized I really could easily understand and produce the bracelet in a night, this book became #1.

While this book may be good for learning the basics if you have never done anything with crochet or beads. If you are experienced with crochet, you might be disappointed in this booklet as I was. A lot of the technique was common sense and the rest of it is available easily on the internet. I returned my copy.

The book arrived quickly anbd in great condition. Having to count your words when writting a review is nuts, I feel like I'm writting an essay for high school english.

This is a very small book which I call a booklet. But the pattern are really good. I am a long time crocheter and wanted to try my hand at beads. I believe this is a good start up book with enough variety for the number of pages. I am a visual learner so making the beaded necklace took some time for me to master, I had to start over many times. But, I did get it and the many comments I receive on my white and black beaded necklace have encouraged me to design one of my own.

This book was a gift for a friend. She is very happy with the book. She is a jewelry maker and each year at a craft show she has something new to make and share with customers and she has chosen this book to help with a new product. The book is in very good shape. It came within reason of being delivered. I love Amazon!

Cannot review as I just glanced at it and left for the west coast due to the hurricane... I was in New Orleans...
However, I am sure it was fine
