Introduction

What makes a piece of jewelry special?

When creating handmade jewelry, a personalization of the piece is what separates it from the ordinary: incorporating a vintage bead, a found object, a much-loved image, or even a scrap from a recycled sweater or favorite fabric. Sometimes, its developing an unusual technique or designing around a vibrant use of color, texture, or contrast that makes the jewelry unique. Unlike purchasing a mass-produced piece of jewelry, creating an original piece by hand is truly creating wearable art. This book showcases a stunning collection of original jewelry created by artists from all over the world.

Chosen for their creative details or their overall aesthetic, these pieces feature techniques such as collage, wirework, lampwork, and weaving; materials such as paper, fabric, wire, beads, clay, and paint; and styles ranging from classic to dramatic. Some pieces are breathtaking in their simplicity, others are delightful in their elaborate layers of color and media. And, amazingly, while most of the artists in each section started with similar raw materials, their results are beautifully varied. Explore the pages at leisure, and let the artists creativity inspire your next project. Perhaps an unusual color combination will catch your eye, or youll be tempted to try a new technique. This book is a gallery of inspirations and also includes a guide to basic jewelry-making techniques to help you get started.

Expand your skills and reflect your personality by incorporating new ideas and whimsy into your homemade jewelry. Enjoy!
