Product Description
After exploring the exquisite ideas and 35 projects showcased in this one-of-a-kind jewellery collection, youll never look at found items the same way again. There are countless suggestions for recycling everyday objects, from electrical wire to soda cans, while uncovering their vast potential for beauty. Begin by examining various metal types and forms and the techniques for shaping and cold-connecting them. Select from a range of surface finishing treatments and find out about the special skills often used for working with stones, shells, plastic, wood and bone. The wildly creative pieces include a driftwood brooch, a bracelet with wooden game pieces and a pendant featuring old boat charts.

Format:Paperback
this book is brilliant, all jewellery looks finished to a high standard, and you wouldnt think it possible for the materials used were recycled. i needed inspiration for a jewellery project at college, it gave me lots.
it tells you what you need to make each piece, then step by step instructions on how to make each piece.
i will be making a few things from the book, and wear them, some pieces are really original.
a good book to get

Format:Paperback
Loved this book! It explains clearly many jewellery making techniques that will help me combine found objects with hand made felt in my feltmaking practice. The projects are inventive, fun and will make you look at various waste materials in a different way. I highly recommend this book for dabblers like me and anyone with an interest in creating beautiful pieces from recycling materials and found objects.
