Simply Modern Jewelry: Designs from the Editor of Stringing Magazine

Geared toward the novice beader, this comprehensive introduction to making jewelry begins with “Bead Shopping 101”—a description of basic beads and how to differentiate between bead varieties and colors. Thirty projects are presented in a step-by-step manner with full-color illustrations to simplify techniques such as stringing, crimping, and the proper use of jump rings. All the designs reflect a modern sensibility for creating fashionable, boutique-quality jewelry.
