Hi there,
Having seen all the lovely beads there are out there I quite fancy having a go at making some of my own jewellery. I've no idea where to start, so that's the ideal excuse to treat myself to yet another craft book. After having a look on Amazon, the two which appeal to me most are "Bead on a Wire" by Sharylin Millen and "Creating Wire & Beaded Jewellery" by Linda Jones. Does anyone else have these books and if so, what do they think of them. Are there any other books you'd recomend instead (or as well!). I'm interested in using fairly large, glass and lampwork beads and making necklaces, bracelets & earrings so not the fine bead weaving (looks just too time consuming!) and not expecially interested in crystals either.
Thanks!
Anne.
