5 out of 5 stars Good place to start   May 12, 2008
I'm just starting with wire work and found this book to be very helpful. Good pictures and instructions. I've been very pleased with this book and have made several of the projects.


5 out of 5 stars My Favorite Beading Book   April 11, 2008
I have checked this out from the library so many times and finally just decided to buy it. This book goes into more detail than all the others I have read about wire and bead jewelry. It is obvious she puts a lot of care and effort into her craft and shows you how to do the same. Even something as simple as making a spiral is refined in way to make a tighter nicer looking spiral (in my opinion). I refer to this book often.

This was an interesting book, but I am a true novice, and don't feel ready to take on making some of the items shown. It did give me good ideas however, and I doubt if anyone who is interested in wire working would regret this purchase.


5 out of 5 stars Teach yourself! Fantastic photos!   April 2, 2008

There are so many photos in this book, that it is like having the instructor sitting next to you. I had no experience with wirework, and was able to create a very impressive gift for a good friend in one attempt.
It focuses a lot on hammering/flattening of the wire, which might require some tools that you don't have.

Every technique is illustrated with in-depth step by step photos! I would highly recommend this.

Lots of info on the nuts and bolts of working with wire. The topics are well ordered, the photos clear and outstanding, step-by-step instruction. Would recommend very highly.
