Our featured book this month is
Designing Jewelry with Glass Beads by Stephanie Sersich
Designing Jewelry with Glass Beads by Stephanie Sersich is 128 pages long and includes 20 projects, useful tips and basic information on the art of glass bead making and history of beads. If you love beads, you will love this book.
My favorite quote from this book: “The world of glass beads unites admirers, collectors, designers, consumers, creators, and researchers.”
I have often pondered on the power of beads and how they bring people together that may have never spoken otherwise. Also, I love to learn about the history of beads and their role in every major culture. Stephanie touches on both subjects and then launches into 20 beautiful projects.
Inside you’ll find:
- 20 original projects
- Projects that incorporate unique handmade glass beads & pendants
- A very useful list of materials, supplies & tools to use (See PDF file)
- Techniques range from wirework, stringing, sewing and knotting - each technique is fully explained and illustrate
