Excerpt from Introduction
... in presenting this guide to the fashioning of a small number among the thousands of articles which can be made through the use of beads, we wish to leave with you this thought-that beadwork is always worth while; though fashion may change there is always a return to the beaded; the artistic work of your hands today will give you much satisfaction while the vogue is strong, and a work of art always lives, becoming enhanced by age in both value and sentiment.
E.P.B.
Contained on this CD you will find 35 stunning designs from the peak period in beaded bag design - 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.
