Easy Beading, Vol. 4 presents the best projects from the fourth year of BeadStyle magazine. This annual includes more than 80 projects, and a thorough, illustrated Beader’s Glossary and Basics section. The fast, fashionable, and fun projects are catagorized by material and teach readers a variety of techniques and design ideas.

With this gloriously photographed and illustrated manual at hand, beaders can create awe-inspiring jewelry. It's the only current, comprehensive guide to working with cabochons--a flat piece of rock or mineral--and it covers all the basics, along with a range of new creative techniques and hot trends. Find out which tools and materials to use, which beads work best, and how to wrap them round the stones. Craft turned, pointed, twisted, brick stitch, ruffled, or scalloped edges, or add decorative fringe. For something dramatic, combine more than one cabochon in a single piece. Or, instead of natural stone, use dichroic glass or other found objects. Make a glittering brooch, funky bracelets, a wearable art necklace, and other showstoppers.

Even after seven years, readers will continue to find exciting and unique ideas in this delicious compilation of more than 80 of the best projects from the seventh year of BeadStyle magazine. Using only accessible techniques such as stringing and simple wire skills, readers can quickly and easily make a stash of necklaces, bracelets and earrings to accent their favorite clothes. Great photos and step-by-step instructions with call-outs help teach readers techniques and design ideas.
