Hand-made jewellery is always in style. So why not go one step
further and make your own beads? Polymer clay is the material of
choice and you will learn how to use free-form techniques and
bead-rolling tools to create several styles. Sculpted effects,
simulations of semi-precious stones, photo-image transfers and use
of glitter and organic material mean the beads you make will be
unique. All the tools you will need are listed, and finishing
techniques, such as sanding, buffing and sealing, are described.
Detailed instructions on how to use your own work to create stylish
and individual pieces of jewellery, including necklaces, bracelets
and earrings are also included. Basic techniques, such as stringing
and fixing clasps, lead on to assembling all the components in
designs and styles ranging from contemporary and elegant to simple
and plain fun. Beginners and more advanced practitioners alike will
find both practical advice and plenty of inspiration.
