Description:
This in-depth guide is almost like getting two books in one. Not only will you receive the guidance and insight to create jewelry that is embedded with personal meaning, but Amulets and Talismans also features extensive instruction on a wide variety of cold-connection techniques that can be applied to any style of jewelry making. Incorporate found objects, personal mementos and more into one-of-a-kind pieces of art.While this is not specifically a polymer clay book, it is included here because Robert Dancik's cold connection techniques are popular with clay artists.
