This first book in the new series will get readers started in making beaded jewellery, similar to the hugely popular absolute beginner’s course that Carolyn teaches. It introduces people who have no experience whatsoever, and who may never even have tried a craft before, to the basic techniques, tools and materials involved through simple, inspiring projects. It includes a pictorial 'Jargon buster' glossary of the essential tools and materials used (with both UK and US terms); an index; and 12 step-by-step projects through which people can learn the basic techniques while creating beautiful pieces of jewellery they would want to wear. Clear instructions, step-by-step photography and diagrams where necessary create a user-friendly guide. Projects will take no more than a couple of hours, making them achievable in an evening. Learn how to use memory wire, beading wire, stretchy cord, chain and jump rings to make desirable jewellery pieces. Design tips throughout will encourage beginners to get creative and become jewellery designers in their own right.
Beaded jewellery is popular amongst crafters as it is highly creative, easy to master, and requires very little by way of tools or materials. Bead Stringing is part of the popular Jewelry School series by Carolyn Schulz, which teaches the reader how attractive, wearable items of beaded jewellery can be made quickly and easily. Following on from Let’s Start Beading, this book focuses on a variety of bead stringing techniques, teaching the reader how even the most elaborate beaded necklaces, bracelets and earrings are actually very easy to achieve. There are 12 stunning projects, each with clear, step-by-step instructions and beautiful photographs, helpful tips, and inspiration for designing your jewellery pieces of your own. There's a handy picture glossary and guide to the tools you need at the back of the book, so even those new to jewellery making will have all the information they need to start out on their creative journey.
