Beaded Gifts is a booklet from the producers of the Beadwork magazine, containing 18 projects over 30 pages. All the projects cover some form of beadweaving to create unsual gifts such as candleholders, picture frames, button covers as well as some necklaces, bracelets and earrings.

This booklet is a project book where the assumption is made that the reader already knows their stitches. Definately one for the older beader or perhaps a project book for anyone wishing to create a very unusual gift.

There isn't the usual how to section or materials and tools. This is a booklet written for the experienced beader who knows what a peyote, tubular peyote and brick stitch is.
