Most beading books include a mix of patterns but call for very specific beads and materials. So if crafters dont like the beads used in the projects; or dont have them in hand; they wont enjoy the projects; no matter how beautiful they are. But Susan Beal has untangled this knotty problem. "Bead Simple "is the first work of its kind that offers stunning jewelry patterns that can be completely customized with a variety of beads and stringing materials. Based on simple; yet effective beading techniques; this strikingly illustrated pattern guide includes 50 glittering designs; each featuring two bold variations for a total of 150 projects that can easily be achieved with different materials or tweaks. With hot guest designers; including DIY Networks Jennifer Perkins and Megan Nicolay; author of the bestselling "Generation T;" here is the one book that finally offers jewelers the versatility to let their unique personalities shine through.

6 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Excellent CollectionBy ClassicalmusicloverAn interesting and excellent collection of essays. I personally found the articles written by Brahms contemporaries to be the most illuminating. While some of the chapters are quite technical musically; there is much that is of great interest to the layperson.
