Sometimes the only thing an outfit needs is a little sparkle.  Some flashy earrings or a crystal beaded necklace can do wonders in transforming an outfit from drab into fab…and with the patterns you’ll find in Endless Sparkle, you’ll be able to glam up your accessory collection in no time.

Endless Sparkle is a jewelry lover’s dream book.  Beginning with 12 crystal components, this book lays the foundation for a variety of designs that you can easily make.  Author Aimee Carpenter begins by teaching you how to create 12 simple components and then shows you some projects you can make with these various combinations. 

I happened to love the Keepsake component.  This is a simple and quick design that lends itself to a variety of uses and colors.  You could use this pattern to create pendants, earrings, rings, and more. 

With helpful diagrams showing the movement of the thread through the beads, Endless Sparkle is a great book for any level of jewelry crafter.  If you love glitz, glam, and a little something flashy, you’re going to love Endless Sparkle and the hidden treasures that lie within.
