I recently received a really fun group of Lark Books - first up a re-release.
The Weekend Crafter was a series that included everything from mosaics to basketry to stained glass the issue that we are looking at today is Beading: 20 Great Weekend Projects.
When you consider today's economic climate, buying another beading book may seem extravagant - but Lark has brought this one back at just over what a magazine might cost! ....you could get it for free - see the giveaway info at the bottom of this post!
Starting with the basics the book opens with some of the tools and techniques necessary for the projects in this book - and no this is not just jewelry...the beaded votive candle holder from the cover is both easy and adorable!
Crafters and Beaders alike will love this book!
From The Publisher:
With more than 100,000 copies sold, this incredibly popular entry in Lark's Weekend Crafter series is now available with a redesigned cover at a great lower price! Beads are an irresistible decorating device. This book gives beginning beaders and general crafters 20 easy and creative projects to make, including jewelry of every kind, accessories, household décor, and more. A gallery of beaded objects provides wonderful creative inspiration!
GIVEAWAY!
