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!

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.

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.

After looking through this book I felt able to begin a simple bracelet and then move on the more sophisticated items without losing confidence.  After making a few items I knew I could develop the ability to design some of my own jewellery.  You don't get books like this written in the UK.

The book was not as detailed as I would have liked for it to be, however there were some very simple and delicate designs in it.

Simply Beautiful Beaded Jewelry, I am very satisfied with this company of beads, they sent my order quickly and I received them all unharmed.  Would order from them again.

This is a well written and well illustrated book.  Still need to study it further, but so far it has proven very useful.  Great pictures and design ideas.
