4.0 out of 5 stars For more experienced beaders, December 10, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Beadwork Creates Bracelets (Paperback)
Nice photos, beautiful patterns - but instructions are hard to follow if you are a novice beader. If you are looking for a variety of new patterns, however, it is a good book to have.

I really like the book. Great illustrations and instructions.

The only negative I can find about this book is trying to keep it open while using.

2.0 out of 5 stars nice projects, poor instructions, January 4, 2008

This review is from: Beadwork Creates Bracelets (Paperback)
I tried to make 3 projects so far using the book and have had no luck. It seems that the projects are missing half of their directions. I'm not a novice and this just frustrated me. I found the same book at the library and now regret purchasing this when I could have been frustrated for free. I'll end up taking it to a local bead store and getting an instructor to decipher the projects.
