The second perfect beading book.,

This review is from: Get Started Beading (Best of Bead & Button Magazine) (Paperback)
I broke a favorite bracelet, decided to do something about it. I surfed to my favorite & trusted sight--Amazon.com, and bought the 2 most perfect beading books I thought possible.
This book truly does have " 52 Fabulous Projects ", as the cover reads. But, I would have been totally intimidated with these projects had I not purchased "'GETTING STARTED' Stringing Beads" by Jean Campbell at the same time for the free shipping. I highly recommend these two books together for anyone who is thinking about beading.

Excellent for beginners,
By JennD - librarian (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Get Started Beading (Best of Bead & Button Magazine) (Paperback)
Bead & Button Magazine is an excellent source for design inspiration and products, but it includes a lot of projects and articles that won't be helpful to the beginning beader. This book takes the best of the beading projects from various issues and puts them all in one place. Beginning beaders will find projects that they can do right away and different styles of beading to try when they are ready to branch out.
