I have been playing around with beads for sometime but have never really know the extent I could take my hobby too. This book is well written with clear and precise instructions with lots of pictures. In the beginning, there is a clear explanation of all the materials needed and then there is a large number of projects showing how to use the different elements of beading. I found this book all a beginner would need. I received this book as an ARC and will be using it often to help support my hobby.

Bead Jewelry 101 by Karen Mitchell and Ann Mitchell is a definite must have for beginning beading enthusiasts. The introductory pages are full of information on the hundreds of types of beads and findings that are available. The photographs are clear and colorful. For each project there is written as well as photographic instruction. So for those of you who are visual learners this book is a handy reference guide. There are many projects covering how to use head pins, jump rings, and various other items in excellent detail.
The authors chose wonderful and versatile projects that can be adapted in many variations. Well Done.
I would like Quarto Publishing, the authors and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Some very nice pieces to make, with nice, clear instructions and photos. Many pieces are quite simple and ideal for beginners, tying jewellery making for the first time. But some nice ideas and back to basics ideas even for people who have been making jewellery for more years than they care to count, like me! I especially like some of the jump ring based pieces.
A good clear intro for beginners on tools, equipment and types of beads and a good mix of projects to suit most people.

A good basic introduction to Bead Jewelry. Clear instructions and lots of photographs. Some nice projects to make too.

I have always wanted to try to create my own jewellery and when I saw this book,I was initially attracted by the cover.

The content did not disappoint!
The instructions as clear and they are accompanied by lovely and easy pictures.
As a beginner,I have found this book very informative and easy to follow.
I particularly appreciated the part where tools are suggested.You don’t often know where to start as a beginner.

There are different ‘projects’ or ideas(earrings,bracelets etc.) to recreate and easy techniques are explained step by step.

I really enjoyed this book! A great way to get into the bead jewelry craftmanship.

Beautiful book. Great and easy to follow step by step instructions. Informative of what tools are needed from what to use, beads, findings etc with some lovely ideas of what and how to make it. Well illustrated of what you need and what to do. Great for beginners. Overall a very good book. I would definitely recommend to anyone especially any crafter starting out and interested in beading.

Great book for beginner beaders or those who want a bit of a reminder of the first steps. The book is incredibly well laid out. It starts running through all of the tools and materials that one will come across, and gives great advice on starting out and on selecting items to invest in.
It then deals with construction techniques before moving on to a large number of patterns. These are brilliant. Whilst they are suitable projects for beginners, they look as though they could have been bought from any good jewellery store! There are a wonderful mixture of earrings, bracelets and necklaces and a few others such as glasses chains, all arranged in the type of findings e.g. beading wire, headpins, chain etc.
Highly recommend this book.
Thanks to NetGalley for a Kindle copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Highly recommend you buy this book and I give it a 5 star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
