Design 50 beautiful projects that explore the growing trend of using leather, silk, and linen. A must-have for all jewelry artists!
"The projects in this book may be bohemian-inspired, but theyre more haute than hippie. Jewelry designers Eurto and Siegel work with ribbons and cords in their designs and the contrast between these softer materials and the beads and stones in their jewelry is a source of inspiration."
Library Journal
"So what is a bohemian, anyway? By the looks of this luscious book it is a woman who favors a soft, fluttery style accented with bits of silky ribbon, shiny beads and a supple leather strap or two (50 Shades fans, take note!). All the projects incorporate unusual elements...buttons, lace scraps, ceramic letters, leather knots, braid scraps...that surprise and inspire. The technique illustrations are both pretty and illuminating and the photography of the finished projects is both alluring and detailed enough to provide further clarification and direction to the hobbyist. Overall, a lovely addition to a jewelry-makers library." Publishers Weekly
