Review by nievki, 2010-01-11

My daughter bought me this for Christmas. I asked her to send it back. I am a novice at beading and wanted instruction that I could refer to for various beginning techniques. The beginning of the DVD was so boring that I didn't even bother to finish watching it so I don't know if those instructions were ever presented. The first seven minutes was a slow moving explanation of bead sizes. She took way too long to explain this. The professor moves the lessons along at very slow pace and it just gets boring. There is too much "white space" between her sentences and even more when she leaves a subject and begins another. Beginners do need time to learn techniques but the time she provided was excessive. She speaks in a very slow type of clipped English which I found irritating. At times, I felt she thought her audience consisted of five year olds. Do yourself a favor. There are plenty of free videos on the web. Use those.

I received your video "how to make beaded jewelry Vol 1 and 2, but both VOLUMES HAVE NO AUDIO, I live abroad and I can't return them because the charges would be more than the 2-videos together.
