Based on one of BeadStyle Magazine’s most successful special issues, A Year in Earrings offers a different earring design or project variation daily for an entire year. The front matter has been expanded to include design ideas, clarification of types of ear wires, directions for making ear wires, tips and shortcuts, and an explanation of what metals are best to use in earrings for those with metal allergies. Making a different pair daily is easy and quick thanks to clear photographs, step-by-step instructions, complete materials lists, and carefully explained basic techniques. These earrings use a full spectrum of materials — glass, crystals, metals, chain, wood, charms, Lucite, and everything in between. Individual designs include Sparkling Circles, Natural Chandeliers, Keshi Pearls, Bold Hexagons, and many more. A Year in Earrings offers beaders a wealth of projects to make and show off.

“There is really no better indicator you’re a mother than acquiring the ability to catch throw-up in a plastic bag, disinfect your hands, and immediately ask your friend to pass the beef jerky as you put on another Taylor Swift song and act as if nothing has happened.” This is the type of insight Melanie Shankle offers in this quirky memoir of motherhood. Written in the familiar, stream-of-consciousness style of her blog, Big Mama, Sparkly Green Earrings is a heartwarming and hilarious look at motherhood from someone who is still trying to figure it all out. Filled with personal stories—from the decision to become a mother to the heartbreak of miscarriage and ultimately, to the joy of raising a baby and living to tell about it—Sparkly Green Earrings will make you feel like you’re sitting across the table from your best friend. A must-read for anyone who’s ever had a child or even thought about it.
