The Beader's Colour Mixing Directory by Sandra Wallace

This indispensable book features 200 failsafe colour schemes created especially for beaders, allowing you to use colour creatively and with confidence.

Issue 4, June/July 2007

I already own a book on colour for beaders, which I love, so I wasn't expecting this book to add anything else or be as informativeI was completely wrong!

This book is amazingly interesting and informative about colour and I do feel that I learned a lot from reading it. It also has 10 really nice and appealing projects that each have different colour combination ideas, and I do think I might end up beading at least one version of each project, they're that good. If you like beading, then you will like this book. I feel it is even worth the price just for all of the 100s of photos of beadwork. All the pieces have words to go with them to tell you more about the colours and a 'chart' that shows you how the colours used split up percentage wise. I found this really useful to help me choose some colour combinations that I wouldn't have been sure about before. I'm sure this is going to be one of those 'well-thumbed' book that I return to again and again.
