Product Description
Product Description
Start with one-part tassels, and move on to elaborate woven ones attached to elegant handles. An equipment guide discusses threads, cardstock, tassel heads, beads, and other materials. Experiment with Z and S twists, techniques for making long and short cords, and ways of preparing templates. Create a bright array with frilled skirts; mob caps; beaded necks, heads, and skirts; a spider’s web and a jewelry finding head. They’re decorative, prac-tical, and fun.

I'm keen to get going,
By Elaine Perrone (Houston, Tx United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tassel Making For Beginners (Paperback)
As I haven't made tassels before, just been impressed by their elegant look, I decided to read the whole book first. I've now done that and I'm ready to start. This book is easy to read and understand and I feel confident that once I've tried a few times I will master these beautiful accessories.

A great "how-to" you won't outgrow,
By QuinnCreative "-Q" (Glendale, AZ, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tassel Making For Beginners (Paperback)
"Beginners" is in the title, but you won't give up the book when you gain experience. It's filled with tips, ideas, and shortcuts that make the learning experience fun and keep your interest high. Whether you want to make a simple tassel in fifteen minutes or develop a complex tassel as a project, reach for this book for instructions. This is the tassel book to buy first. You won't give it up.

technique and referance book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tassel Making For Beginners (Paperback)
It's a useful referance book for various techniques. This book shows many ways to create a tassel (cord/woodheads/ect), not just one tassel with slight variations and additions to it. I found the basic tassel diagram confusing as a beginner, it looks hand drawn. The written instructions are good. I also like the descriptions of threads and how they affect the tassels shape, movement, and texture. The tassels are plain, but the info is good!
