Sustainability is foremost in the minds of many designer-makers at themoment; there has been a surge of environmentally-sustainabledevelopments in the collections shown recently at Origin, NewDesigners in Islington, Pulse and Collect. Jewellers are veryaware of sustainability issues, as such a large proportion of theirtraditional materials come from non-sustainable sources (preciousstones and metals) and they have traditionally used acids, dyes, andother techniques not renowned for their eco-friendliness. This bookwill encourage makers to recycle and show how 'pre-loved' ortraditionally throw-away materials can provide new inspiration.

Inspired by the craftsmanship and attention to detail of early costume jewelry, Heather DeSimone demonstrates how to create fun, one-of-a-kind pieces by teaching techniques for layering readily available components in Create Three Dimensional Jewelry. Jewelry makers will learn how to layer premade components, make beaded clusters, create beaded loops, weave seed beads, embellish filigree components, rivet stamped metal pieces, and more as they create 21 unique projects. Most importantly, mastering this three-dimensional approach to “building” jewelry teaches designers to think about using their materials in a new way.
Making Jewelry with Meaning The things you collect - the ticket stubs, the coins, the pieces of shell from a beach - hold meaning and significance, reminding you not only where you've been, but also where you're capable of going. Making these items into wearable pieces of art - amplifying their power to become amulets and talismans - is a rewarding experience that's easy to do. Working with the most basic of tools, you will learn cold-connection jewelry techniques to expand your creative process. In addition to basics like creating jump rings and using a file, you will also: • Make your own hook and latch clasps • Cut windows from sheets of metal • Inlay designs into polymer clay • Incorporate concrete into your work • Achieve patinas with heat • Journal your thoughts onto faux bone • Turn paper pulp into realistic rocks • Create "time capsule" beads from Plexiglas • And much, much more!
