Recently Released Books

My third book, Mixed Metals: Creating Contemporary Jewelry with Silver, Gold, Copper, Brass, and More, is now here! Co-authored with Stringing magazine’s editor Danielle Fox, the book teaches you how to create jewelry using metal beads and findings.

No metalsmithing is involved, just simple wireworking and stringing techniques that make it easy for you to make stylish metallic necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.

Get your own copy here, signed by both the authors.
