With her unmatched eye for color, color mixing and layering, well-known artist and fan favorite Julie Picarello helps beginners and advanced polymer artisans design, texture and finish gorgeous art beads using relatively simple techniques.

The book includes 7 mini projects and 10 finished jewelry projects, while callouts at the beginning of each project let the readers know exactly what specialized techniques will be learned. It's the color that makes polymer clay truly exciting, and this book uses color like you've never seen it before.

Format:Paperback
Wow, absolutely fantastic and unique use of just one technique (mokume gane), I can not wait to try and have a go myself. The pictures are very helpful to understand the process and it is step by step instructions, these may be slightly difficult to follow for complete beginners. I found the colour information on combinations and mixing a really good section in this book. The projects are very varied and will provide plenty of ideas to further develop. Beautiful pictures!

I received this book yesterday after having pre-ordered it. All I can say is that it is simply fantastic. Excellent text, excellent photography and it is written in a style that you feel you are actually taking a course with Julie. The basic technique is clearly explained and there are a number of variations, all meant to get creative juices flowing. I am certainly not a master clayer, but neither am I a novice, and I found the book filled with lots of wonderful bits of advice on working with polymer clay. It is the perfect book on this technique for any clayer's library, whether novice or experienced.

This is the most amazing book I have in my collection so far. Brimming with ideas and the techniques are easy to follow, lots of how to's! Well written and although a fair number of photos are of other peoples work they are still inspiring. There are so many ideas it has taken me a few weeks to get the cool tools together and read through the book before I got started with actually putting the instructions into action! Very Inspiring!
