Reviews
"Easy to understand written instructions and excellent close-up photography clearly showing the thread paths. Kudos . . . innovative and highly effective use of thumbnail layouts that offers readers a condensed view of the construction process." -Monsters and Critics.com, "If beadwork conjures up images of hippies and dangling, useless, crafts-market jewelry, Nelson-Smith will make all those nightmares vanish. The 18 designs are unveiled, each with plenty of instructions. Included in each is a listing of techniques, materials, tools, sizing/finished size; What's the story, or her explanation of the piece's name and inspiration; directions with color photographs and illustrations inserted at appropriate steps; Nelson-Smith's tips (such as coat the thread with beeswax to maintain its tension); and At a Glance, a photographic depiction of the major activities within each item (for instance, bases, bumps, assembly, and so on). The last chapter covers all the basics, whether types of beads and the different tools to the how-to's of fasting and stitching. The jewelry—earrings, necklaces, and bracelets of all sorts—comes close to museum-quality manufacture, with three-dimensional effects adding to true statements of adornment." — Barbara Jacobs, Booklist "Easy to understand written instructions and excellent close-up photography clearly showing the thread paths. Kudos...innovative and highly effective use of thumbnail layouts that offers readers a condensed view of the construction process." — Monsters and Critics.com "18 projects that push the borders of seed beading in new directions. Think layers, think 3-D, and think adding materials into your seed beads to stitch, wire, or weave contemporary edgy creations." — Bead-Patterns the Magazine, "The jewelry-earrings, necklaces, and bracelets of all sorts-comes close to museum-quality manufacture, with three-dimensional effects adding to true statements of adornment." -Booklist, "Easy to understand written instructions and excellent close-up photography clearly showing the thread paths.
