Celebrations With Polymer Clay: 25 Seasonal Projects Review

Average Reviews:

It is a beautiful book to look at and to admire. But if you are a beginner I suggest going with "New ways with Polymer clay" and or "The polymer clay techniques book". The Techniques book is very helpful!! I loved this book but for now all I can do is look and dream.

This book is excellent and informative. I just started making jewelry and this book was easy to follow and understand for a beginner, but certainly has plenty to learn for someone with more practice. It has eleven lessons for beautiful and ornate rings, but information and tips for modeling any type of jewelry. I highly recommend it for anyone!

This books covers a wide range of projects (not just rings, as some of the books do). Each project has step-by-step photographs and great detail. The instruction is clear and easy to understand. I highly recommend it whether you are just starting to work with wax, or an expert.

Modeling in Wax for Jewelry and Sculpture (Jewelry Crafts) Review

I got this book after making jewelry for 3 years and lost wax casting for 6 months. Boy, did I learn a lot! The projects are truly outstanding. They show a wide variety of techniques and styles. Try each one even if it's not a style you're really big on - I did and found neat ways to do things I wanted to do that I hadn't managed before. I require this as a text for all my apprentices who do casting.
