I'm so excited that my book is finally here!
I created over 30 projects inspired by nature featuring art beads. Each project showcases my creative process and offers insights into the basic principles of design. Find out what inspired the necklaces, bracelets and earrings throughout the book.
The projects cover stringing, wire-wrapping and a few seed bead projects - perfect for all skill levels. I created stunning designs that were easy enough for a beginner and inspiring enough for a seasoned designer.
Included with the projects are a few fun variations and bonus earring designs. Readers will find articles on beads and poetry, tips for keeping a design journal, color palette ideas and interviews with three of my favorite beadmakers.
This book reflects what I find most inspiring in the natural world - the forests and woodlands, gardens that bloom and buzz and the call of the mysterious ocean. I've shared them with the reader in hopes that they will use the tools in the book to explore their own inspirations.
