Bead One, Pray Too: A Guide to Making and Using Prayer Beads Bead One, Pray Too: A Guide to Making and Using Prayer Beads by Kimberly Winston


My review

I heard about this on the CraftSanity podcast and it sounded really interesting, so I borrowed it from the library. The author said that she gave an inroduction to a variety of religions in the course of the book and crafting sounds like a great way to learn about religions of the world!

My review

Danny Gregory has been recommended to me many times, especially by Amy of the Creative Mom podcast, a very creative and high quality podcast. I bought the book she uses as her bible (it sounds like), The Creative License after I had reserved An Illustrated Life at the library. Of course I received them all the same week. I think that this book will be by the Jennifer New book, Drawing From Life: The Journal as Art, but I will let you know after I have given it a thorough going over!

  1. The beading book is terrific. Thank you so much for sending it to me, what an awesome surprise. Especially since I’ve been so good about not buying new books this year so far, it was extra fun to get one in the mail from you. so much good info in the book , and inspiring pictures.
