Additions to my ever growing library
Have I mentioned that I looooove crafting and beading books?? I pore over them again and again and again. It's really nice to have a large selection on hand if I'm lacking in the inspiration department. I just ordered these 3 new books this week. I'm excited to get them. They are different than books I normally pick out but I am hopeful that I will be inspired to maybe try something new.
I'll let you know how they are once I get my hands on em.
I am so glad to know that I am not the only one with no filters when it comes to beading books! I don't have the first two, but I have had the Metal Craft Discovery Workshop for quite awhile and I am fascinated by it. I bought it before I ever worked with metals and now that I am using them, I really need to get this out and play. Or set aside a day to play. I have always wanted to change the patina on metals and this book has so many options. I really want to try the potato chip experiment!

I'm an addict, too. :) Plus, now Amazon recommends new books to me all the time and I just can't resist!! Perusing pages of pretty project pictures is almost as good as digging through my own bead drawers. :)
ReplyDeleteOh they look really great!
