ReviewsThe Complete Book of Glass Beadmaking is the most detailed instruction you will receive without sitting in a classroom. The directions are thought-out, clear, and have corresponding photos for almost every step. The methods learned are applicable to any bead you desire to create, and you will find limitless inspiration from the gallery — filled with eye-catching and colorful images from the finest glass beading artists. This book is great for those new to beadmaking, but it also contains intermediate and advanced technique sections. After working your way from front to back, you will have mastered (or refreshed your memory in) everything from shaping beads, adding color and decoration, altering surfaces, making gravity and floral beads, fuming, and creating sculptural beads such as a winged heart and a spiral seashell." — Belle Armoire Jewelry , Spring 2011 issue Eye-opening. The photography throughout is excellent. A beautiful book." — Library Journal
