        A wonderful book is authored by an English author, Mary Wood: The Craft of Temari, published by Search Press ( this is my personal favorite for inspiration of the English books - ). Four books have been written by Diana Vandervoort: Temari, Temari Traditions, Temari Treasures, and Temari Adventures. All are published by Japan Publications. Temari - A Traditional Japanese Embroidery Technique by Margaret Ludlow, published by Guild of Master Craftsman Publications is good for beginners. Another book is by Anna Diamond, Temari Book.  All books are obtainable through major book retailers such as Barnes and Noble.com , Amazon.com and some needlework shops - they may be available at your local library.

        Temari is making it into needlework magazines too. There have been several beautiful how-to articles written by Janet Donelly of Australia. Embroidery & Cross Stitch Magazine (Vol. 4, No 4) has a great beginner's article including instructions for 3 designs called "Golden Temari".  Other articles are featured in the Inspirations Magazine - No. 20 (Chrysanthemum Ball) and No. 25 (Wild Swan Egg).
