Stringing Summer 2011

NEW THIS ISSUE is our thematic organization of projects. You’ll want to check out Toggled Treasures (projects that use a toggle clasp), Round and Round (projects that feature ring components), Brush of Blush (projects that are predominantly pink), Jurassic Jewels (projects with an organic, age-old feel), and Posies with Punch (projects with dimensional flower components).

You’ll also enjoy this issue’s feature, Our Favorite Things: 30 Beading Materials We Couldn’t Do Without. In it three editors list their TOP 10 jewelry-making supplies. Novices might want to consider purchasing some of the items to build their own stashes; advanced beaders might find something they never knew they couldn’t live without.
