Bring the beads along. With these 33 projects, crafters can make pendants, earrings, headbands, and bookmarks anywhere at all. There's very little equipment and few supplies needed, so why not relax and get creative on car trips and airplanes, at soccer games and doctors' offices--wherever some extra time turns up? All the basic techniques of the craft (so simple) are included, along with tips to keep the materials organized in makeshift spaces, but it's the wonderful things to make that will please. Craft a crystal bracelet or one from coral; a watchband; a pearl, brass, or bone necklace; a hot pepper loop; a beaded basket; a mask; a cardholder, and other lovely things.
