The Useful Booklet Company
Ref: UB
The Useful Booklet Company produce a series of booklets on beadwork techniques that are, quite simply, perfect for beginners. Written by my friend Heather Kingsley-Heath, an accomplished beadwork designer, artist and tutor (she also edits the Beadworkers Guild Journal) you know that you are in good hands with these publications.
Buttons & Beads
Ref: UBBut
Buttons & Beads is a guide to jewellery making. Create everything from a simple lariat to a fabulously fringed bracelet. This little booklet guides you through how to use thread, cord, clasps and findings. Discover how to use wire too. Projects include easy to make lariats, necklaces, bracelets and bangles, using popular jewellery making techniques. The designs incorporate buttons throughout, and some designs are embellished with beads and sequins.
Try a simple lariat, a richly textured bangle; have fun twisting wire to make 'dainty as fairy dust' designs, or make yourself an elegant charm bracelet, using chain and links.
