More DescriptionThe Beader s Color Palette reveals the extraordinary colour inspirations for beaded jewellery that can be found around the world: Margie Deeb, an expert on beading and colour, presents 220 palettes in five chapters: the four elements, art history, world cultures, natural landscapes, and the animal world. Each palette is inspired by a photograph or painting. Some of these palettes also appear as spectacular jewellery contributed by noted beadwork artists. In addition, each chapter includes projects that show step-by-step how to create a piece of beadwork jewellery inspired by a related palette. These projects mainly involve stringing, which is a more accessible technique than weaving. Beginners who are new to either stringing or weaving can consult the helpful how-to sections at the back of the book.
