       Those who say they are not creative are often the ones who end up with a life-long passion for beading. Why? Because they have learned the secret that so many talented jewelry makers know: Beading allows you to make a wearable work of art in a short amount of time, using the colors, materials, and textures you love. Don't be afraid to experiment and play with color combinations in brand-new ways. With beading, you are able to express your personal style and passion through jewelry. As you read this book, I will be with you every step of the way, encouraging your creativity and bringing out your inner jewelry designer.
