Simply Beautiful Beaded Jewelry Reviews

  • Cindy

    I vote Heidi Boyd best beading author!
    Here are the reasons:<
    1. There are big pictures of most projects
    2. You achieve instant gratification due to easy projects
    that look like a million bucks. Really.
    3. There is a wide variety of useful functional items to make such as several hair accessories and a badge holder. (who doesn't know an office lady that would love a snazzy badge holder?)
    4. Stand Out Project: Vintage Pearls necklace, mine was a definite success.

  • Erika

    Beautiful and timeless projects, great pictures, good instructions, helpful intro guide. There are several projects I'm interested in this book such as pearl earrings (lots of other earrings as well), decorated hair chopsticks, french flower bobby pins, rhinestone hair elastics, several chic bracelets, and elegant gemstone necklaces. I'l have to get this book again when I have more time to teach myself how to do it!

  • Kim

    Good for beginners (which means me!) and wonderful photographs of jewelry ideas. Also has a comprehensive introduction to the different kinds of ways to put beaded jewelry together, listing things like crimp pins, eye pins, etc.

  • Melissa

    great illustrations

  • Barb

    Comprehensive

    This book has excellent instructions on many designs. It is well worth the money and will bring you many hours of jewelry fun!
