Instant glam, instant gratification: Learn how to make gorgeous earring with Beadwork Creates Earrings
Dangles, drops, and chandeliers – it’s easy to fill a jewelry box with the 30 stunning earring designs in, Beadwork Creates Earrings. Earrings are simple and quick to make, and they are so immediately gratifying that you could create an entire collection without spending too much time or money.
“Earrings add instant glam to any outfit, and with fashion trends changing by the minute, learning to make your own earrings is a great way to stay in style without breaking the bank.”
Beadwork Creates Earrings features beginner-to-advanced projects made with a variety of popular beads and a potpourri of beading methods ranging from simple stringing to wirework, peyote stitch, and netting.
All the earrings in the book were contributed by prominent designers, and include simple drops feature sparkling vintage beads, flashy Bohemian fringe, free-form doodle pendants evoking a modernist painting, and delicate crosses.
There are also tasteful tassels, eye-catching beaded crystal balls, fun lampworked dangles, retro wire-wrapped resin, and the ever-classic loop. The instructions are thorough and easy to follow, the photographs and illustrations are clear and enticing, and the designs are pure inspiration. Rounding out the book are tips and techniques that can be applied to new designs for years of jewelry making.
“Long shoulder-dusters are hot now, but next month it could be traditional studs – this book has it all, and it could be the only earring design book you’ll ever need.”
