I was looking for inspiration to up the creative level of my jewelry, and this is a book full of inspiration. I think a little prior experience is helpful, but not essential. However, being handy with tools is important. Very nice photos, a variety of levels of difficulty. Lots of ways to incorporate parts and ideas into new original creative work. I am very pleased with this book and glad I added it to my library.
Some of the designs are quite lovely. It gave me some good ideas for styles I had not thought of. The illustrations are very good and the directions are easy to follow.
I'm learning a lot from this book, and the price I found it here is great. I'm already looking for more from this author.
it's ok.. i wanted more hook earrings instruction... but its alright...
Easy to understand, illustrations on the mark!
