Well, I can give you a little heads up on how to get started.

• Start Photoshop
• Go to File > New.
• Change dimensions to 60px by 60px.
• Make the background contents transparent, and hit ok.

So now, you have a blank "canvas." Here, you can go many different ways about making a an icon.

On the left hand side, you have many tools. If you have a one column toolbar, you might want to use the top one, or the 18th one down.
If you have a two column toolbar, you will want to use the top left tool, or 9th one down on the right column.

Hint: When you click on these, click and hold for more shape options.

These tools I mentioned, will get you the basic shape you want for your icons.

Just, look around Good Tutorials[Photoshop] to learn different techniques on how to use layer styles, and more.

You won't be a master right away by no means, but should get you a kick start.

Hope I was of some help.
