Getting Started Making Wire Jewelry & More Chandler Ritchey 2005 Hardcover Craft

Designed especially for beginning jewelry makers, this highly illustrated guide walks readers through wire selection, tools, jump rings, bead connections, head pins, coils, ear wires, clasps, wire wrapping, bracelets, earrings, rings, and more. Step-by-step photographs make the techniques easy to follow, and projects progress from basic skills into complete finished pieces.

Featured projects and techniques include spiral bracelets, chandelier and toggle earrings, knot rings, bead-and-pearl bracelets, wrapped briolettes, clasps, and wire-embellished greeting cards.
