First Time Jewelry Making The Absolute Beginner's Guide--Learn By Doing * Step-by-Step Basics + Projects by Tammy Powley Having dabbled a bit in stringing beads I thought this might be the perfect book to give me a bit more information to use in the future and BOY did it ever! I have always wanted to know how to knot between beads and learned not only how to do so with one but also with two strands and didn’t even know that was possible. I saw more equipment for jewelry making than I realized there might be and learned the technical terms for various items. I had the urge to go out, buy some tools, buy some wire and beads and see what I could make. I didn’t go but I still wanted to and can see anyone reading this wanting to, too. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Quarry for the ARC – This is my honest review. 5 Stars
