"These 30 designs will send you running to your bead table to see what you can make too. As an added plus, there are great tutorials on stitches in the back of the book."—Jewelry Crafts |
Adorning our necks and wrists with beads has always
been popular, but creating bold and original finger jewelry is now
attracting beaders by the droves! Because of their size, beaded
rings are simple and quick to make, and they are so instantly gratifying
that you could easily create an entire series without spending too
much time or money. Having searched the country to find the hottest
fashions, editor Jean Campbell delivers a gorgeous variety of stylish
rings that include flashy rhinestone coils and subtly patterned
tubes, flowers for the hand, crystal domes that catch the light,
a leopard skin ring, a sea urchin ring, and a ring for your chakra.
There are knitted rings, strung rings, and wireworked rings; some
for special occasions and others for everyday wear. Beadwork
Creates Beaded Rings brings more of what you expect from this
wildly popular, how-to series: 30 spectacular beading projects created
by prominent designers, beautiful photography, and clear step-by-step
instructions. So, if large beading projects are getting you down,
jump on the fashion train and try your hand at beaded rings.
Beaded Rings is the fifth book in the Beadwork Creates series.
