I mentioned this book in another area of the site. It's a fantastic book for making beaded flowers. It's available all over the UK but kind of hard to find in the US. I don't remember where I bought it; it was a US online seller. I've had some trouble finding it for under $40.00 but maybe someone else knows of a store that has it for less. There's a person on amazon asking $98.72 for a used copy! Shocked

I only paid about $20 for the book myself. I wish I could remember the seller.

Here is book information on one UK site that sells the book. There are sample pages to view:

Here are two US sellers who have it:

Many of you know who Cindy the Beadlady is (she's great!). She has it for sale for $40:
http://www.beadlady.biz and the book is on her picturetrail site

If you're willing to wait for shipping from the UK you may find it for less than the sellers in the US. I highly recommend this book and so do many others (see reviews below). It's well worth any hassle you may go through to get it.

Does anyone else have something to say about this book?

Penny,

Thank you for all of the terrific links to information and sellers of this book! I saw that $98.72 price for it, too...ouch! Glad you were able to purchase it so reasonably.
