Art of Metal and Wire: Over 30 Inspirational Projects and Ideas - Softcover

Mar 05 This is a well priced book which covers the basics on wire and metal without, it has to be said, much in the way of diagrams and picturesl Most of the book is taken up with projects using embossed metal or twisted wire. The details here are much better and some attractive designs are shown. Projects include cards, frames, even purses, while jewellery and notebooks are interesting additions. * Workshop On The Web *

Using easy-to-follow text and many inspirational designs, she shows how to work with sapphire and green metal sheets, gold, copper, silver, different gauged wires, and wire mesh, creating over thirty stunning projects. These materials are worked on their own and together, using both familiar and innovative techniques including embossing, texturing, wire embroidery and working with spiralled and twisted wire. You do not need special skills to achieve impressive results - and this absorbing craft is fun to do!
