With 'BEADS AS JEWELRY and a minimum of materials and tools, you can create a wardrobe of chic beaded necklaces, bracelets and earrings–fancy or funky, simple or elegant.
Step-by-step instructions in the traditional techniques of stringing beads and the ancient art of off-loom weaving are clearly detailed. You will also learn to work with all types of chain, craft and jewelry wire. Instead of soldering, jump rings with epoxy glue or wire lengths turned into loops are used to reinforce connecting links. This linking technique is not widely known and its use results in unusual and attractive effects. There are over 50 step-by-step projects accompanied by line drawings and threading patterns, 16 color and 126 black and white photos.
BEADS AS JEWELRY will quickly lead the way to the creation of fashionable, inexpensive jewelry with a professional touch–and a needle and thread, beads, findings, and jewelry or craft wire are all you need to get started.
