Jewelry making and Beading for Dummies

I checked out 50 jewelry making books from the library and this is one of only three that I decided I wanted to purchase for my personal book collection. It covers a huge amount of information in detail as well as giving good outside sources to go to for further instruction. This book has been a great resource for me and I highly recommend it for both beginers and more experienced jewelry makers.

It has helpful in tips and even give you other suggestions to make it different than in the pictures. You can refer back to it and see where you might have gone wrong. I woud tell people who want to learn how to make jewerly, this is a wonderful book

Excellent

Love this book, it has everything i was looking for, tips, techniques, gems explanation. And also have samples in color pages! Great for beginners!

Best basic book I have seen to date...

Very impressed with this book--wish I had had a copy when I first started beading decades ago. Clear instructions written in a pleasant and relaxed manner. I am most impressed with many of the very numerous tips provided that come only after a great deal of experience creating, making and marketing beaded items. If I had to have just ONE basic beading book, this would be it.

Informative, Witty & Fun

Heather's use of humor and wit made this book very easy to read. I love the illustrations and found them to be useful. I have used the book for a quick reference and for detailed how-to instructions. I am inspired and ready to get beading!
