Want to shade every stitch from dark to light? Just line up your jars of beads and start sewing. Want to make every stitch a different color? Spark up a line with sequins or dangles? Create raised lines of beads looping over and under each other? All these effects and more can be achieved with simple variations on classic embroidery stitches. Every stitch is explained with detailed instructions and easy-to-read diagrams.	If you are confused as to what’s best to finish your jewelry this is for you. The right finishings transform humdrum jewelry into great one-of-a-kind accessories. This guide shows you how to use purchased findings or one you make yourself to professionally complete necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pins, and more.	Learn to bead with ease! With precise instructions, clearly drawn illustrations, and beautiful color photos, this book makes learning to bead fun. Once you’ve added these 32 techniques to your beading repertoire, you’ll be able to make bracelets, necklaces, eyeglasses, chairs, bag fringe, purse straps, quilt trims and scarf edgings.	Beadpoint is similar to needlepoint, but instead you sew beads onto backing using just thread. The end result is both different and extraordinary. Many beads have lustered or metallic finishes that reflect light so every project has a soft, lovely look. Gorgeous!
