Instant Expert Beading by Ganderton Lucinda
This simple, easy-to-follow book shows you how to master everything from using findings to loom weaving, from embroidering beads to wire working. Learn about the intricacies of the fashionable art of beading, and make your own beaded jewelry, as well as beautiful household accessories. An illustrated introduction looks at the history of beads, their manufacture and their use in different cultures, from the multi-coloured African beads of the Masai tribes to the animal-shaped Inca beads of the Peruvians. The current vogue for beading in clothing mirrors the fashions of the 1920s when beads were on every dress, purse and accessory.
