Beadflowers Beaded Earrings, is the tenth book in the Beadflowers Beading Patterns series. It offers you the complete collection of earring tutorials that I created over my career as a bead artist and shared through the Beadflowers website. So, you are getting more than thirty different projects in this one book.Throughout these projects, I am inviting you to create with various different beads. For some, you will be using just basic seed beads. Other designs use multi-holed or shaped seed beads, pearls, crystals and more. The projects range in difficulty from beginner to advanced and they use a wide range of different beading techniques. So, as with the other books in this beautiful series, you can take your skills to new levels.You might wish to supplement this book with the second volume in the series, which teaches you basic beading techniques. For the beginner projects in this volume, I have shared everything you need to know to complete your design. Projects for more experienced beaders assume that you already have basic technique skills. So, if you wish to learn or remind yourself of the basics, definitely grab a copy of volume two to use alongside this.The designs included in this volume are beautiful on their own, and earrings always make a wonderful gift that doesn’t take too long to make. You can pair these up with bracelets and necklaces from the other titles in the Beadflowers Beading Patterns series. You might also like to consult the next volume, which is full of beaded beads that you can also use to make even more earrings. Whether you are looking for large, small, elegant, fun or stylish, there is something in here for you to enjoy.Katie Dean followed a career in the beading industry for over 12 years.
