This book is excellent! I borrowed it from my local library, renewed it, and then knew that I had to have it! I am on a fixed income and cannot always afford to take classes, this is a great substitute. I cannot afford nor do I have space for all kinds of fancy equipment, this book tells you how to use ordinary tools or items in your home to work with the wire. It is really a wonderful text for learning to work with wire. Once you learn the basics, you can let your imagination run wild!

Good value for the price. Detailed instructions for the beginner that are easy to follow. The projects in the book could be easily adapted for your own designs, adding stones, beads, etc. A good basic teaching manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars Making Wire Jewelry, September 28, 2000

This review is from: Making Wire Jewelry: 60 Easy Projects in Silver, Copper & Brass (Paperback)

This is a great book! It's very thorough about materials, equipment (maybe even a little too comprehensive) and technique. You can use it as a self-paced text, since it progresses from very simple to complicated.

I'm still on project #1 (no time!) but I've looked through it again and again and plan to work my way through it.
