Editorial Reviews: Product Description French beading is a simple yet lovely art, beautifully described here and illustrated in color with more than 70 close-up, how-to photos that show how to grow a garden of 30 flowers with delicate seed beads. Forty additional illustrations present the exact bead placement for each particular flower part. Just string the beads on wires and bend them into realistic, three-dimensional shapes; a helpful introductory section covers all the basics. Craft a budding dogwood branch, frame a mirror with wisteria blooms, or make a holiday wreath of holly and gold-tipped pinecones. A gallery of vintage pieces illustrates the rich history of the craft.

Customer Reviews: Read 4 more reviews... OMG different covers books but same on the inside September 9, 2008 i am completely disappointed i have gotten every book that this art has put out and had i not looked at a friends collection i would have doubled my own collection of books. this book is the SAME exact copy of the hard copy with the beautiful dogwoods on the front it BOY was i so upset i thought i was getting 30 more flowers to recreate but in fact its THE SAME Exact book just a different cover watch out for that Okay, Not Great January 2, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful I am a total beginner when it comes to making beaded flowers. I picked up this book in order to learn the techniques, and so far I have been pretty disappointed. I have already noticed several errors and the format of the book just does not work. As mentioned in another review, the steps will often reference techniques that have not yet been explained so you need to flip to a later chapter to learn the skill. Also, I felt that the book just did not have enough useful pictures. There are plenty of pictures in the book, but a lot of them are at angles that make it difficult to see key points of the flower. In general, this book is just okay. It can give you the basics behind making flowers but the instructions are not as detailed as they could be and there are very few step by step photos. If I were going to start again, I would buy a different book. Pretty projects. Good instructions. February 13, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful I bought this book because I saw some beaded flowers at a craft show and I thought I'd like to learn to do it myself. I had a little difficulty with the techniques in the beginning, but with practice and by frequently referring to the very nice, detailed pictures in the book, I finally got the hang of it and completed a fine looking poppy (if I do say so myself). I have since complete two other projects. I wouldn't go so far as to say the projects are easy or simple, but they are imminently doable. And last but not least, they provide the beader with a real sense of accomplishment. Beaded Flower Excellence January 4, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful The most beautiful & easy to understand beading book on this topic I've ever seen. I love it! Great pictures & information. Highly recommended. Elegant little book August 2, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful Photography is excellent. Very clear instructions. Good for new crafters as well as those with experience. Variety of patterns is excellent.
