Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Advanced Beadwork Comment: This is a magazine that pushes you to create more and better beadwork. It focuses on seed beads, not stringing, and really opens up your mind to the possibilities. Customer Rating: Summary: One of the best Comment: Beadwork was my first beading magazine. I like the questions to the contributors and the FAQ sections. It's nice to hear something personal from the artists. Along with projects, there are feature articles on specific mediums or artists that are informative and interesting. Project diagrams are detailed and helpful. Way too many ads however (almost 1/2 of the magazine). My only real complaint is that I only get it 6 times a year. Customer Rating: Summary: Challenging Comment: The magazine is filled with yummy patterns for beautiful pieces. The instructions are very easy to follow. Customer Rating: Summary: Bead up on the latest Comment: Beadwork magazine as with most magazines on a particular skill or art gives you every thing you expect. Magazines can not replace books for in-depth and specialties skills that are targeted by a particular beader. However they are broader and more contemporary. There are projects for novice and expert alike using traditional materials and the latest in bead technology.
The projects are well described and have color pictures and diagrams. You will find Step-by-step instructions. There are always fresh ideas. I am particularly interested more in Bead Knitting than in bead jewelry.
One of the mane reasons to buy magazines is to find sources of recourses. The market changes all the time. The ads in this book give you locations and websites for items to add to your stash.
Customer Rating: Summary: Beadwork magazine Comment: This magazine is good but only average to people who want to use the projects most of the projects are very out there so if that's your thing you will love it. For the average beader it is NOT worth the cover price.
Beware the subscription to this magazine if you are not in the US it's overseas subscription is the worst of any magazine I have ever come across, out of 4 issues that I should have had I've had 1 !!!!
