I finally completed my ビーズ Book collection. I present Vol. 4 (ISBN: 978-4898297087) I emailed Pompadour from Simply Pretty Japanese Bead Books on eBay, and (s)he immediately found a copy to sell me. I made a beautiful necklace for my brother's fiance, then promptly let her leave w/o taking a picture.
Lots of Swarovski patterns. It's a pity they don't seem to publish this series anymore. I really like it. There's probably 30 patterns in each volume one (the last one.)
I also got a good deal on "My Beads Accessories" (ISBN: 978-4537019889) by Takako Samejima. It's an early book, never translated into English.
I have made two necklaces with vintage buttons, and I hope to have decent pictures to share.
