I am sooo excited. I have not been this excited about a book since I got my copy of Bead on a Wire, which introduced me to the fantastic world of wire working.
Oh, yeah. What am I'm so excited about? Step-By-Step Jewelry Workshop: Simple Techniques for Soldering, Wirework, and Metal Jewelry. I just had about an hour to browse through the book while my son was in his karate class, but I was wishing I was in my studio to start trying out the techniques right then and there!!!
Pictures (350 of them!!) are GREAT. Really excellent step by step instructions. The wire working section was meh, I already know that, and there was a section on bead stringing that really seemed out of place, but there are detailed instructions on soldering, cutting, piercing, doming, riveting, forging and more more more.
SBS Jewelry Workshop will be available April 2008 from Interweave Press. At $24.95 US, it's well worth the price. Put it on your "wish list" now. :-)
