Description

This is a beautifully illustrated guide to creating eye-catching
jewellery out of found or recycled objects, at very little cost. Sarah
starts by demonstrating how to put together a basic tool kit for under
£10 and then takes the reader through 25 projects, which include
creating pieces from vintage earrings found in charity shops or car
boot sales, seaglass washed up on the beach, driftwood, coins, vintage
beads, old washers and buttons. The clear step-by-step instructions and
easy-to-follow projects are suitable for both beginners and
intermediate makers, they are easily adapted to alternative found
objects and enable the reader to create their own pieces using the
skills they have learnt. The last section addresses good places to find
materials, and advice on setting up a jewellery business if you want to
take your hobby further.
