PERFECT BOOK
Date:July 6, 2008
"At the bead shows, the artists recommended this book for starting wire-working and it truly is what I was looking for. They told me to skip taking a class and just buy this book, alot less expensive and I have the book to refer to all the time.
Basic techniques that are up my alley and got me started to embellish my beadwork even more. It is clear and easy to follow. Highly recommended!"
