Making Fantastic Jewelry

Rating:
Summary: I returned this book!!
Review: This book is proof that you can't (or shouldn't) make a silk purse out of a sow's ear! I would wear 10% of what is shown in the book, not more than that. Make no mistake, I DO value creativity, if and ONLY if, the finished product is pleasing to the eye. Most of the projects in this book looked like a preschooler made them from junk fished out of a trash barrel at the hardware store. A necklace made from shriveled orange peels?! Some of the items looked positively dangerous to wear; sharp pieces of jagged metal!...
