Color Mixing Directory Beader

Color mixing Beader Directory: 200 Failsafe Color Beautiful beads written by Sandra Wallace and published by Krause Publications (U.S. $ 22.99, $ 27.99 CAN) responds to the need to understand how colors can work for or against it in their creations of bead jewelry. Unlike many jewelry books published today, do not think the primary audience of this book is the first manufacturer of jewelry, just for the lack of nuts and bolts type of information, but how the basis for the manufacture of jewelry not is clearly the purpose of this text. Instead, I saw this as a sort of portable classroom in color theory. Certainly, the beginner will find this information useful, but I think even more, the renowned designer of jewelry (especially at intermediatel jewelry) will find this book useful.

The first chapter includes detailed discussions on color theory, the basis of the color wheel for different types of color combinations from the wheel. The second chapter is based on this information and gives examples of jewelry of how you can implement different types of color combinations that cold, warm, neutral, and so on. The last chapter has 10 projects using some of the color schemes of the sample chapter two.

Although there are some gems here, plans and color samples consist mainly of pearl jewelry techniques of weaving. Thus, while the rails logs can still find a lot of information here would apply color to string, balls of tissue is probably more willing to try the projects.

If you are struggling with the combinations of color, or trying different colors, then this might be a good resource for you.
