In 2004, The Art of Metal Clay introduced thousands of readers to the moldable, malleable clay that becomes pure metal after it’s fired—and became the metal clay bible. Now author and jewelry-making instructor Sherri Haab has updated her bestselling book with the most current information on this revolutionary medium, in The Art of Metal Clay Revised and Expanded Edition(Watson-Guptill; July 27, 2010; $24.99). The book includes invaluable information on:
–Using the new, highly sought-after bronze and copper clays, with must-have instructions for successful firing
–New bead projects: creating beads around silver cores, bronze beads, and bead caps for lampworked beads
–Up-to-date information on firing with stones, plus a new technique for setting particularly delicate stones
–Using the recently developed methods for water etching and electro-etching
–Utterly inspiring galleries of work by prominent contemporary metal clay artist
Ten all-new projects!
Best of all, The Art of Metal Clay Revised and Expanded Edition comes with a bonus DVD showing exactly how to implement over 20 of Sherri’s signature techniques by demonstrating four projects: Heart Bead with Center Stone, Gold and Silver Flower Ring, Square Bezel Picture Frame Charms, and Star Bezel Polymer Clay Charm Bracelet.
For metal clay and polymer clay enthusiasts, jewelry makers, beaders, and other crafters who want the latest information on metal clay, Sherri Haab has compiled a treasure trove of information to inspire and delight.
