Susan Beal, jeweler extraordinaire and beloved CraftStylish blogger, bills this book as a text of "essential techniques for making jewelry just the way you want it," and that's just what it is.

The workbook-sized, paperback is filled with gorgeous and inspiring photos of beaded jewelry that ranges from simple to busy, in scales from small to large. Some of the projects require only two supplies while others are more complex. Included are 150 unique ideas sure to please you and every bead-lover in your life.

Both a project guide and reference book, BeadSimple lays the groundwork for using beads and making jewelry by explaining the terms, tools and techniques you'll need to know.

Later chapters lay out patterns for earrings, necklaces, bracelets, pendants and specail embellishments for purses, clothing, greeting cards and holiday decor.

It's simple to create beautiful jewelry with BeadSimple.
