By A Customer
This review is from: Creative Clay Jewelry (Paperback)
There are so many examples of beautiful clay jewelry that it makes this book facinating to look at. Anyone can do it, the instructions are very simple with many pictures and diagrams to help you along the way. There are many hints and tips on how to make these beautiful designs with simple household utencils. I would definitly reccomend this book to people who love art and love to work with their hands.

This review is from: Creative Clay Jewelry (Paperback)
I am so impressed with this book! The book is filled with so many images in colour. There are plenty of pictures to show you how to make the beads and other jewellery pieces. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. There are lots of great designs in the book. This is a MUST HAVE for any clay/jewellery hobbyist/designer! There are lots of unique pieces of jewellery in this book.
You can use this book by following the instructions step by step, or you can just flick through it to get plenty of new ideas if you are the kind of person that likes to combine your own ideas with that of other artist's work. A Fantastic Book to have in your collection. I highly recommend this to everyone.Creative Clay Jewelry

Colorful projects ranging from basic to challenging,
By Ivy - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creative Clay Jewelry (Paperback)
Creative Clay Jewelry is one of the many books that attempt to cover polymer clay work from the very basics to quite advanced. While other books are probably more successful at that (Sue Heaser's Polymer Clay Techniques Book, for example), Creative Clay Jewelry has some good projects and solid information, and would be quite useful to the beginning to intermediate clayer.It's unfortunate that there's no real indication of level of difficulty in the projects; they don't follow any logical progression. Some of the early projects use very basic techniques only - jelly rolls, marbling - which could probably be discussed in the introduction section. However, just a few projects in, there's a geometric pattern that would be quite difficult and frustrating to do as your third or fourth PC project. I'd advise careful consideration when selecting a project from this book. Dierks does provide a much more detailed ingredient list, including things like findings and clay amounts, which other books tend to skip. She even specifies particular brands and colors, but it isn't necessary to adhere to them. On a more personal note, I got less use out of this book than most of my PC books, simply because the projects were very bright, busy, and colorful - and that's very far from my style. But for those who love the casual, cheerful look that polymer clay can provide, this book might well be great. 22 of 23 people found the following review helpful:
