Review: The Beading Answer Book - Excellent! - I am just getting started with beading and found the Beading Answer Book very clear and informative. It answered questions that I hadn't even thought or knew about. I liked that it combined a lot of various information concerning any and all things "Beading". Included are a helpful index, glossary and resources list. The book answered my questions on what the karat difference between the 10-K, 14-K, 18-K, and 24-K gold is. It covered the topics of gold, gold-filled, gold-plated and vermeil. The same type of topics for silver and other metal findings were also covered. There was so much information provided that made this book so enjoyable and informative. I also liked the question and answer format. I had many of the same type of questions. The author has many good "illustrations", "charts", "ideas" and "pointers" included in the book. This all combines to make the book a clear and valuable source of beading information. The information was arranged in chapters so you are able to find the information you want quickly. For a small sized book (6.3 x 4.5 x 1.1 inches), there is a lot of information packed in the 432 pages. The heavy cardboard covers and cloth binding seem sturdy. I realize the use of these material would help keep the cost of this book reasonable and I felt this price was very reasonable considering all the information contained. However, I hope the book materials will hold up with use over time. The only things I would have liked to add - in my personal opinion - are color photos and a larger size book (and print size), they would all be welcome. However, these things would just be enhancement that would not at all effect the information contained. I keep this book very handy and find that I frequently refer to it. I have a lot of other beading books, but I find this book much more informative on a greater variety of beading information. The other books I own have a focus on specific topics, not the overall look at beading. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about beading.
Review: Knowledge! - Everything I could have ever wanted to know about beads. This author is very educated in beading and they put a LOT of time into this book, I can tell that they've been beading for years. I'm a brick stitcher but this helped introduce me to even-count peyote! I'm especially impressed with the back of the book, there are ALL kinds of resources out there that I didn't know about. I started making jewelry about 5 months ago and started stitching with a needle just 2 months ago but beading has become everything to me and I'm so happy to have this book in my collection for reference. Some things so far I've learned the hard way when I should've just checked this book first, particularly about the durability of some beads, I beaded a rustic American Flag design, using some matte golden-white coated beads. By the time I went to photograph them, the coating was coming off. Experience and this book combined, I hope to be as educated in beading as this author one day!
