When I think of leather jewelry, western wear and Greek island and boho style are the first things that spring to mind. Theyre all traditional styles that have stood the test of time. But leather jewelry doesnt have to be traditional. Combine leather with a smattering of beads, or use some clever construction ideas, and you can take your leather jewelry beyond conventional and onto the fashion runway. Think chic, think stylish, think upscale, and youll arrive at designs like the ones in this book. These designs are modern and fashion-forward and combine leather and beads in a way that will have you asking, Is that really leather? And the answer is a resounding, Yes! Including leather in your designs will expand your jewelry-making skills and add a new dimension to your jewelry repertoire.

Leather is not just a stringing material, but a material that can be manipulated to make beads, chains, and focal pieces. Dont let working with leather intimidate youno traditional leather-crafting skills are required here. Instead, youll learn how to loop, twist, fold, and recolor leather using simple techniques that I will teach you, step-by-step. And thats not allI have many other ideas in store that you can use to add leather to your designs. The techniques and ideas found here will redefine your perception of what leather jewelry is! So whether youre looking for something colorful and fun to pair with your T-shirt and jeans, or a statement necklace to dress up your work wear, youre bound to find something that suits your style within the pages of this book.
