- No Real Reason To Buy This OneAt 32 pages, I feel that this book is much too short to command the premium price of nearly $20, especially when there are much less expensive books out there with a far greater variety of projects. Thirteen years ago when this book came out (it's 2008), there were few choices for books on French Beaded Flowers: you could buy this, or you could scour old book stores for out of print books from the 1970's or earlier. (Some beaded flower books go back to the early 1900's. I haven't found any earlier ... Read More

- Cute Projects!The beaded flower projects are just the right size to have almost instant creative gratification. They are also the right size to fit almost anywhere in your home and/or office decor and in the decor of your friends and family.
The instructions are clear and the background information is very interesting. This is a delightful book just to pick up and enjoy looking through, too.

- Not enough imagesThe images of the actual flowers were too small to actually see any detail.
Although the directions of each step are shown in the front of the book, I find that I have to keep turning the pages back when making each flower. I am a beginner but I thought there were too many written and hard to understand directions.
It is also a very small book for $19.95.

- Good, but not worth the costThis was the first book I was able to find on the craft of beaded flowers, hence the only reason I shelled out $20 for the thinnest manual I've ever seen. These days if you do a search many how-to books pop up; most of which I'd recommend before buying this one. I've read about a dozen of them now, and while this particular pamphlet has a lot of good information and a few patterns--any of the other books offer just the same (if not better) instructions and patterns. When I look at it in comparison with ... Read More

- Great French beaded flowers starter!While some folks have said they had a bit of trouble with the directions here, I found them very easy to understand and use. Her diagrams on the basic techniques are clear and helpful, and the several patterns I've done so far have worked up beautifully. I also liked that her patterns are for full (albeit small) arrangements -- some beaded flower patterns out there are for single flowers, and it's fun to create a whole mini-arrangement instead! (They make GREAT gifts, too!)
