Reviews

Little Bead Charms is a book filled with cute beading patterns for small charms. There are over 150 designs based on different themes such as food, animals, letters and much much more. What is fabulous about this book, is that there is an assortment of beads and some craft wire included, so you can get started straight away. There are enough beads and wire to make six charms.

There is a how to guide to get you started, and while at first you might find this craft fiddly, the design patterns are easy to follow. There is a charm for almost everyone, and for every age range, meaning these fun and fabulous charms can be given as a gift. I dont think small children will manage them but ages 12 and over will be able to understand and create the designs.

This is a lovely craft book and is perfect to get you started on your beading journey.
