Making Designer Mixed-Media And Memory Jewelry by Tammy Powley (2007)

Tammy Powley's light-hearted and clever compilation has me thinking like a magical magpie: every bit of paper, every scrap of tin has potential as wearable art. Tammy's detailed instructions are woven with a confidence-building, "you can do this" spirit that enhance the wit and whimsy of the projects. ("Shoe Queen" is smart and simple and I don't even like shoes!) I've been stringing beads for twelve years. Until reading this book, I was content to call myself an artisan. Now I am thinking like an artist. Thank you, Tammy Powley! Beach Beadle
