 What a great book! Aug 14, 2007
By Nicholas Safko
I just started working with glass beads and this is one of the best books i've found about bead work. It's extremely clear and easy to follow and the pictures are great. It gives you step by step instructions with the different techniques. I've never seen such great wirework before. This is a definite must for anyone working with beads and jewelry.

 Definitely not worth the money!!! Jul 30, 2007
By F. Gerd
This little pamphlet of about 30 pages claims to help beadmakers enhance their wirework.
Nearly all of the informations it contains can be found for free in every beadrelated magazine.It contains only 5 projects: one for a pendant, pictured on the front page.The same instructions are taken a few pages later to make a smaller pendant to use as earring. The look and the instructions for both projects are identical. The neckwire project only explains how to finish the edges as a clasp, but no word about getting a beautiful round in the neckwire itself.Next project is 2 different wasy to make earwires, both very rudimentary. The "great tip" to file wire ends before putting the wire through the ear lobes is a basic that every beadmagazine repeats in almost every issue.The bracelet project is also quite basic.
You can get much more useful information on wirework suitable to beadmakers and much better explained and for much less money too in the following books:
Bead On A Wire: Making Handcrafted Wire and Beaded Jewelry
All Wired Up: Wire Techniques for the Beadworker and Jewelry Maker (Beadwork How-To series)
Getting Started Making Wire Jewelry and More (Getting Started series)
