Instructions for wire wrapping, riveting, stamping, and forging metal into jewelry__mostly copper and brass and silver, using beads of all kinds as well.
Each project is shown in enough detail to easily build it. There are plenty of extra tips to make working understandable, even for beginners__though a little prior experience never hurts.
If you've never made jewelry making your own metal pieces, but have assembled findings and beads into earrings, necklaces, and bracelets, you'll do just fine.
