Contemporary in 1995, maybe...,

This review is from: Contemporary Wire Wrapped Jewelry (Plastic Comb)
I was disappointed with this book. Most of the designs are variations on one style of wire-wrapped cabuchon, and I thought they were rather gawdy and dated. The designs were probably innovative and stylish in 1995, but they aren't anything like current trends in wirework.

From Filigree-wrapped cabochons to chain bracelets,
By Amy the Craft Diva "Amy J" (N Miami Beach, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Contemporary Wire Wrapped Jewelry (Plastic Comb)
Specialized designs, mostly with twisted gold wire. Designs range from wire-wrapped cabochons to airy pearl drop earrings and chain-link bracelets. Easy to follow, step-by-step instructions with photos or illustrations allow anyone with minimal experience to follow thru and create a beautiful piece of jewelry. Twelve designs are included in this book, some with variations on a theme. Basic techniques and tool information start off the book. Wire gauges and wire-wrap sources are also included.

wire wrapping at its best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Contemporary Wire Wrapped Jewelry (Plastic Comb)
This book is not for a complete beginner but rather for someone who has worked with wire before. Wire wrapping cabs has been one of the things that I struggled with until I got this book and then all of a sudden I got "IT". This book has some wonderful projects using some common sized stones available through many mail-order sources. The back of the book has a section on planning your own projects. I find that I can't read this book before bed because it makes me want to get up and get to work on one project or another.
