Bead It has a project to serve almost anyone’s interests and of course, the instructions, diagrams and pictures are the quality that we all now expect from Interweave Press. There are wire projects, needle and thread projects and even beading on fabric projects.  There is even a project to teach you about following a simple graph.

The instructions provided with each project takes you step by step through the jewelry piece and carefully and fully explain the use of the various pliers and other tools used in that particular project.

This is a great little book for the beginning beader who doesn’t have a bead store with classes just around the corner from where they live.  At the price of $10, everyone can afford it and still have money left over to buy more beads!
