Once you’ve gotten your feet wet with jewelry making, it’s time to take on some projects!  And naturally, I have some for you.

Intro to Bead Embroidery

Shall we get started?

About the Projects

I’ve tried to group the projects by technique used.  So I have projects with (for example) peyote beading, viking knit and more.

The projects are either a single piece of jewelry, or sometimes with multiple pieces.  All of them have not only the base project, but also ideas for different colors or other variations.

All of these projects were written by me, and with my own photos.  I didn’t swipe someone else’s work (which is really tacky, not to mention unethical).

How Are the Projects Delivered?

The projects are all downloadable ebook tutorials.  They are not paper books that arrive in the mail.  So once you select your project(s), you’ll receive a download link.  This means that no matter what time of day or night, you’ll be able to start reading your project ebook within a minute or two!

So — while you don’t get a paper copy delivered to you in the mail, you also don’t have to wait for it to arrive!

Is There a Cost?

With my project ebooks, I do have a small cost involved.  The ebook tutorials range in price depending on the technique and the number of projects included, but none are over $10.

Not sure you want to pay for something without know my writing style?  Check out my Basics ebooks, so you can get an idea of how I write my tutorials, and the kind of photos I take.  I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.  🙂
