Not for me
The instructions seem very good.<br /><br />I like the idea that only one-sized jump ring, is used in all the projects. That was the reason, I purchased this book.<br /><br />There is no information about cutting your own jump rings.<br /><br />I don’t like working with enamel-coated wire, so I would need to cut my own...

I just received the book, and haven’t made any of the designs, yet.<br /><br />This woman is a genius!<br /><br />I have never seen so much detail, in a wire working book.

Highly recommended!
I like this book.<br /><br />It is well organized, and has a lot of hard to find info.<br /><br />A really good reference book.<br /><br />I'm glad I purchased this book.<br /><br />I probably have too many jewelry making books. This one will be put in a place, where I can easily find it!

Interesting history, but dosage info missing
If you want the history of black seeds, and which ailments it can be used for, this is a book for you.<br /><br />If you want to actually use it for an ailment, forget it. There is no information, about dosage.

Good book, mostly bracelets
Looks like there is a lot of good information, in this book.<br />Most of the projects are for bracelets, which I do not make. I would have been happier, if more time was devoted to necklaces, and pendants.<br />If I decide to start making bracelets, this is a book I will return to.

A Rip-Off!
Most of the 54 page book is devoted to pictures of bread pans!<br /><br />There are only TEN recipes. At $9.95 + tax, that amounts to about $1.00 a recipe!<br /><br />Most no-knead bread recipes can be made with regular flour. Not this one, it “requires” bread flour.<br /><br />This is self-published. It should be obvi...

Utilizes non-conventional materials
I bought this book, and didn't get any discounts.<br /><br />The book combines wire, beads, feathers and other materials, including glue.<br /><br />I work with wire, and this book isn't the kind of jewelry, I create. If you work with fabric, leather and lace, you probably will like this book.

loaded w/ recipes, pictures, and in wonderful spiral bound format.
THANK YOU for putting this in spiral bound format. I wish more recipe books would do this. I also greatly appreciate all the pictures. It was like they knew how to appeal to people who like to cook (and eat). Give me a recipe book in spiral bound form, and provide pictures of each (or most) recipes, and I will pay load...

I want to get back into oil painting, or any painting. It's been too long, and I still have viable paint in my art supplies.

Super cute, totally worth it for the chuckle. I bought this for a friend as part of an upcoming Christmas gift.

Interesting perspective on copper that I hadnt considered before. I find buying a book on a subject allows me more time to learn and absorb information over just reading an article.

lots of recipes (no pics), feels short on information. Better for those already familiar
Canning heavy in comparison to other types of preservation addressed. If you want primarily information and recipes for canning, then this should suit you fine. I was hoping for more basic dehydrating preservation. It's ok. Break down is : 5r pages on canning, 35 pages drying, 60 pages freezing--but not all of that is...

Worthwhile read, eat a lot more fruits, veg, grain, legumes if you can
Compelling read. For me, probably the most influential information toward embracing a plant based diet. Or at least incorporating a lot more fruit, veg, grains. I definitely don't get enough fruits & vegetables in my life, and that changes now. Easy read, well organized, and worth the time. Plenty of take aways.
