If you're on a budget and want a basic lesson or two in beading, go for this book.

Most beading books on the market are over priced and under informed. This guide has the basics to start with including wirework, cloth beading and macrame. It gives you a start in beading with stringing and clasps.

A good start for any beginner. After that is up to you.

Useful for those just barely beginning with beading and jewelry-making. I wish I had been able to borrow a copy from the library since it hasn't been touched once I purchased initial supplies with its recommendation.
