I borrowed a very nice bead book from the public library called Netted Beadwork: A Beadwork How-To Book by Diane Fitzgerald. I've never worked on netted beading projects before but I want to learn how to make those beautiful and intricate three-dimensional wrapped pieces. Christmas is coming up and I think it will be nice to give lacey ornaments as handmade keepsake gifts.
I practiced making lace chains and also worked on flowers. I do wish this book had more instructional photos so I could follow along visually. I find that I enjoy netted beading and would love to keep this book as a reference but the library is all about "borrowing" so I went to Amazon.com. Hooray, I found the book from an outside seller, unfortunately at a very hefty price of $120.97! I'm not kidding!
To perfect my netted beading technique, I'd like to find a good how-to book. If you could recommend one, I'd be very grateful!
