Book Reviews of Teach Yourself VISUALLY Jewelry Making & Beading (Teach Yourself VISUALLY Consumer)

Book Review: great presentation
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the second I've purchased in this line of books (visually). They are very well presented and created. I wish it hadn't taken so many years for a publisher to come up with this idea.

These books are created so that you can re-create what the person is doing in the picture. It's so much easier to understand than reading text, and looking at the finished pieces. I always struggled with instruction on wire wrapping and use of the pliers. These book are much more like working with a live teacher than any I've read before.

Summary of Teach Yourself VISUALLY Jewelry Making & Beading (Teach Yourself VISUALLY Consumer)

A 2006 study found that beading and jewelry making is the nation's sixth most popular craft. This guide shows readers how to do everything from basic bead stringing to wire wrapping, all in the series' easy-to-follow, full-color format. The book includes 20 detailed patterns for making earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and more.
