What made Beads stand out from the other books at the book store was that it has both a variety of projects and also detailed step-by-step instructions with pictures. I've found that most craft books have either a few detailed projects or lots of pictures with little explanation of how to get from the raw materials to the end product. The authors of these books seem to assume the reader is an expert crafter and already has that knowledge. This book, however, has projects that will work for all types of crafters. The specific instructions will help new crafters, but the projects are such that the experienced crafter can extrapolate from the project's instructions to make something more advanced. Another thing I liked is that this book uses beads to do more than make jewelry. For example, I look forward to making the spiral "chandelier" which combines beads and wire. The only reason I didn't give the book a 5 is because practically all of the beads in the projects are very small. I would like to have seen more projects with a variety of bead sizes, but I figure people can change the sizes if they want to for many of the projects. Overall I think that this book is a good buy.
