Book Reviews
Make It Sparkle! Book Review + Giveaway!
Recently, our good buddy Lindsay Burke of Fusion Beads sent us a couple signed copies of her latest book, Make It Sparkle! Lindsay created 25 dazzling jewelry designs to make any occasion special and included several projects that utilize Nunn Design Findings. Here is a sneak peek of several of my favorite projects that Lindsay and the Fusion Team created. Click on any of the images to link to Fusionbeads.com to purchase all of the supplies retail.
Stack Them Up Bracelets

Pink Party Bracelet

Watermelon Bracelet

The book is full of fairly easy projects that are simple enough for a beginner, but with such a high-end look that it would appeal to all skill levels.
Another reason that I really like this book is that you can actually DO the projects! Often books are filled with great jewelry inspiration and tutorials, but by the time the book releases, it is incredibly hard for the consumer to buy the components used. By Interweave partnering with Fusion Beads it makes this book not just beautiful, but functional as well!
Here are a couple more of Lindsay’s projects that I loved!
