Simple Glass Seed Beading by Dorothy Wood
Each of the 18 easy-to-follow, technique-led projects in this book shows how items such as bags, purses, gift boxes, picture frames, cushions and scarves can be made or transformed by beading, whether it is by means of loom-weaving, fringing and tassels or other combinations.
Beaded objects have been in vogue for several years and do not yet seem to have lost their appealAdding pretty, feminine touches to lampshades, throws, candlesticks and more, their delicacy and reflectiveness bring an instant sparkle to a room. This attractive book shows how to make your own beaded decorative items along with carefully explained projects teaching the necessary techniques. From friendship bracelets to pot pourri pouches, tasselled keyrings to coiled coasters, the ideas are suitable for both beginner and the more advanced handyperson and the colour photographs display each object to their best advantage, highlighting the sparkly intricacy of the art. This is an excellent introduction or source of inspiration, in a class above most other books on the subject. - Lucy Watson
