Jewellery-making is one of the most popular craft trends, and its audience continues to grow. Few jewellery books on the market emphasise the importance of the design relationship between beads, wire and jewellery findings - the 'nuts and bolts' of any piece. This book will show not only how to design and build your own spectacular jewellery out of beads and wire but how to design and create your own findings as well. Most jewellery-making books are geared for the beginner and provide little information for intermediate to advanced jewellery makers. Making Designer Bead and Wire Jewellery contains illustrated how-to techniques, full colour project photos, project instructions and numerous tips that enhance the styles and skills presented. Intermediate and advanced jewellery makers will learn new techniques for creating signature elements for their designs, while beginners will get a handle on honing their skills.
