CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
my review - 
I was disappointed that there was not more varied examples in this book. Everything looks the same.
- The home of teak outdoor furnitures
, simply quality bar stools
Nice designs. Pricey once you buy all of the beads for one project. -
I liked this book. I thought the designs were very pretty. The down side to this book though is that by the time you buy all the glass beads you need to make any of the designs you could have bought some pretty nice gemstone beads at a bead show or your local shop.
The Next Best Thing to Taking a Class with Stephanie -
Colorful, fun and funky - that's the jewelry style of Stephanie Sersich. Well known for her "Spiny Knotted Bracelet," Stephanie shares her youthful jewelry designs in a variety of projects. The famous Spiny is here along with easy to make knotted earrings and lovely embellished necklaces. If you haven't ever taken a class from the vivacious Ms. Sersich, this book is the next best thing.
WOW! -
This book has really neat ideas for jewelry! Haven't actually sat down and tried any of the projects yet.. but I've really enjoyed just looking at the pictures! I would recommend this book to anyone with interest in this type of jewelry.. cute, cute CUTE!!!!
Great selections of branded hammocks at
- surely the ultimate teak furniture store!
Fun, creative, inspiring! -
As a fellow glass beadmaker, I am a big fan of Ms. Sersich. Her bead designs are always colorful, well-made, and make me smile! Her jewelry is just as colorful and fun, and her designs were all new to me. The projects are fun and functional, and I am continually inspired by both her jewelry design and bead design. This book will not be going up on a shelf - it's staying in my work area!
