How to Make Stained Glass Jewelry Books
You love to make stained-glass jewelry and you want to share your knowledge by creating a book on making stained-glass jewelry. Creating a book is dependent on planning and completing a manuscript about stained-glass jewelry. Whether you sell your stained-glass jewelry book to a commercial publisher, self publish, or self publish an ebook on the Internet, all stained-glass jewelry books, like other craft books, are made by writing a strong manuscript about making stained-glass jewelry and supplementing the text with great photographs.
Instructions

-
1
Write a table of contents for your book. Every book must begin with an outline. Your stained-glass jewelry book should begin with an outline of the projects and techniques you plan to explain.
-
2
Take photographs of the stained-glass jewelry projects you plan to include in your book. The photographs should be taken at the highest possible resolution with a camera of no less than a 3.2 megapixels. Photographs should be printed at no less than 300 dots per inch (DPI). Include one or two photographs of each finished jewelry project and a photograph for each step required to make them. You can omit photographs for steps that are the same in all projects if you included explanatory photographs somewhere in the book and cross reference the information.
