500 Beaded Objects: New Dimensions in Contemporary Beadwork

Rating:
Summary: Lovely book!
Review: I guess I'm a little prejudiced on this because my daughter, Paula Walter, has 3 objects in this book & I think her jewelry is the greatest!!! But, really, this is a wonderful book with terrific pics of all the work & the objects are so varied that it really makes it special.

Summary: Love this book!
Review: I've seen many of these pieces in various beading magazines over the years but it's so nice to have them all in one place: pages and pages of inspiration and eye candy - you'll find jewelry, clothes, shoes, beaded objects of all sorts, sculpture and wall art. Fabulous color photos. If you love seed bead art work and jewelry, you'll love this book too.

Summary: Beadwork eye candy
Review: This book has so many wonderful pictures of beadwork that it is hard to put down. It is a source of inspiration.
A lot of the pieces are published here for the first time. Techniques and materials used in the construction of the beaded objects are briefly listed but this is not a how-to book.

Highly recommended to anyone who likes to bead or loves to look at contemporary beadwork.

Summary: Beautiful works of art
Review: This book was purchased as a Christmas gift for my daughter, an accomplished beader. The book is for inspiration more than anything, because it is full of fantastic projects done by a variety of bead artisans. It is eye candy for beaders of all levels.
