This book is an outgrowth of her continuing exploration of bead embroidery. It's 128 pages of pure enjoyment.It's not quite as large (not as many projects) as some of her previous books, but in my mind this one is the best yet. The project on the cover does not do justice to what your finished project will look like! And I especially liked the purse project, because it jump-started some ideas for my own beaded handbag.I knew Sherry was working on a new book, and so when I saw it on pre-sale here on Amazon, I jumped on it. I had to wait awhile (impatiently, I must admit), but the wait was definitely worth it.Sherry -- next time I take one of your classes, I'm going to bring this to you to sign. :D ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A True Inspirational Book! *by on Reviewed in the United States April 6, 2018* Well....I simply LOVE this book! Whenever Sherry writes a book, I'm never disappointed. She's my bead hero along with Heidi Kummli. Their first book is how I learned bead embroidery. I read and used it so much that the pages were coming apart (soft-bound). That's another reason I really like this book as it's a hard-bound book. I've read this book cover to cover, and I'm very pleased with her Basics, Creativity, Projects, Gallery, and Templates. In my opinion, her Projects are a combination of beginner and intermediate. The names of her Projects are Blooming Cuff, Siren of the Sea Neck-piece, Betty's Flower Child Earrings, Barnacle Pendant, Gumdrop Cuff, Sea Shell Cuff, Venice Neck-piece, Phoenix Neck-piece, Pagoda Earrings, Galaxy Purse, Bead Soup Bangle, Rodeo Bag, Buckle-Up Baby, Garden of Beads Necklace, and Queen of the Nile Collar. Very seldom do I make jewelry for myself as I either sell it or gift it to family and friends. However, I have gathered supplies to make Sherry's Siren of the Sea Neck-piece and the Queen of the Nile Collar for myself. For the Siren of the Sea Neck-piece I already have a seahorse stamping. However, it's larger than the one Sherry used, but I'll make it work by making mine a little larger. Regarding the Queen of the Nile Collar, I did discover what I felt were a couple of typo's. On page 109 under 'Supplies' the first item should be 'SIX' 12mm cabochons, Jet AB instead of five. And I never found Silky Beads in the indicated color of SAND. But instead I purchased LAVENDER PICASSO silky beads. I am thrilled with Sherry's new book and the projects are great! I admire Sherry's adventuresome spirit when it comes to using unconventional items within her bead work such as rusted round washers and make believe barnacles (really? ha!) along with the round filigree connectors. I would of never thought to find round beads to fill the holes so you could incorporate these connectors into your bead embroidery jewelry! Sherry always has a few surprises which makes her such a delight and an inspiration. If you look at some of her other photographs, you'll find she has used pencils, round buff brushes, other rusty parts, batik fabric, broken miniature dolls, the Road Runner, and claws. Thank you, Sherry, for another fabulous book! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another *MUST HAVE* Book from Sherry Serafini!!! *by on Reviewed in the United States April 20, 2018* Sherry has done it again! Created an AMAZING book! The name, Inspired, is quite apt! Soooo much inspiration to be found in this book. Some new tricks to try out too - like her different twist on stack bezels. There are detailed projects, but really she wants you to find your own objects that *speak to you*. So don't expect these to be average items you can find in your bead stores. This books is mainly to show you how you can take ANY object and turn it into a work of art. She covers layering, using components, the usual basic type of stitches - some with a new twist to them. Detailed pictures to help you and very well written. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/59226257-inspired-bead-embroidery-new-jewelry-designs-by-sherry-serafini](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/59226257-inspired-bead-embroidery-new-jewelry-designs-by-sherry-serafini) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-11*
