Excerpt from Introduction
"Rare indeed is the woman whose fingers do not linger lovingly on the beautiful beads which are so temptingly displayed on the counters of all the large stores. Rarer still is the one who does not secretly, if not openly, break that commandment which admonishes us not to covet, as her eyes wander from one basket to another filled with their treasures which vie with the colors of the rainbow.
Nor is this craze for beadwork, which is now at its zenith, a new fad by any means, for it has been quite as popular many times before during the centuries that have passed, although its revival is always accompanied by specific modifications to suit the demands of Dame Fashion. This time it is the Indian work which is done on a hand loom that is attracting lovers of fancy work; and handsome indeed in design and workmanship are the belts, sashes, fan, lorgnette, and watch-chains, purses, bracelets and foils, which are woven on these looms. As the beautiful ready-made accessories of bead- work, which are so dear to the heart of every woman, sell at prices that are beyond the slender purse, there is no reason why one should deny herself the luxury of possessing them, if she has skillful fingers and a small amount to invest in materials.
The woman who has command of her own time could not find anything more pleasant to beguile her leisure hours than Indian beadwork; and the busy woman who has to depend on odd moments for opportunities to do fancy work could not find anything more nicely adapted for "pick-up" work than bead-weaving."
Contained in this download you will find 56 stunning designs from the peak period in beadwork - the nineteen twenties. These exclusive creations in hand-worked bags, necklaces, bracelets and other items come with complete directions for making.
With the benefit of hindsight we can see that these bags, purses and other items are just as beautiful and desirable today as they were in the early 1920's. Good taste in fashion is timeless. Whether you are trying to recreate a 1920's bag, purse, necklace or watch band, learn bag-making, looking for inspiration, or a fashion student you will get something from this book.
