Our featured book this month is Create Jewelry: Crystals by Marlene Blessing & Jamie Hogsett
Create Jewelry: Crystals by Marlene Blessing & Jamie Hogsett has over 122 pages, full of designs to help you "get in touch with your inner sparkle". Crystals aren't hard sell for me, just as I suspect they aren't a hard sell for you if you are reading this review. Sparkle is a girl's best friend.
From the back cover: "Crystals are the jewelry designer's favorite design element. Showcasing the sparkle, shine, and many facets of crystal, Create Jewelry: Crystals combines stories of this irresistible gem with gorgeous designs from the editors of Beadwork magazine."
Inside you'll find:
20 stylish designs for stringing and beadweaving
Section on techniques and findings
A color & size chart to easily identify your favorite crystal shape and color
Entertaining quotes, anecdotes, and images of crystals throughout history
