Simply Beautiful Beading: 53 Quick and Easy Projects Reviews
-
Heidi Boyd, hands down, is one of the best beading authors. Let me point out why.
1. There are large pictures of each project. (no need to squint or wonder about colors)
2 You achieve instant gratification creating great looking beaded items for yourself or as gifts.
3. In addition to necklaces, bracelets and earrings there are highly functional projects such as a key chain, eyeglass chain, bookmark, hair accessories and home accents.
4. How does she know exactly what my bead stash looks like? (Some of these items are the perfect things for busting your bead stash) -
Kudos to Ms. Boyd! I have been trying to find a beginner's book on beadwork, because I wanted to make a keychain that I can find in the "bottomless bag" I call my purse. Her projects look easy to follow and have inspired me to a new hobby.
