About this product

Product Information

Silver jewelry is a classic accessory that never goes out of style. Crafters and jewelry makers will learn to create dazzling silver designs with Jewelry Studio: Silver Wire Fusing, an all-in-one guide to a no-muss, no-fuss version of silversmithing. Since less equipment is required-fine silver is heated with a torch to fuse it without solder-it is a very cost-effective way to learn basic metalsmithing skills, making it more accessible and affordable for the average crafter. Even the most basic beginner and the most experienced jewelry maker will find silver fusing to be fun, easy to master, and extremely inspiring and addictive. Make stunning projects right on your kitchen table!Liz Jones, a jewelry designer and silver fusing teacher at Fusion Beads in Seattle, Washington, takes the beginner through all the necessary steps in this workshop-in-a book that combines technique-building exercises with great projects, all shown through detailed step-by-step photography. Begin with essential tools and materials and setting up a work space, then move into basic techniques like hammering, tumbling and professional finishing, fusing a ring, and creating basic chain. Once you've mastered these foundation skills, it's time to take it up a notch and learn how to fuse large circles, fuse a bail on heavy wire gauges, fuse with cubic zirconia, work with fine gauges, and understand sizing formulas for rings. Projects include rings, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and pins, but don't stop there. Once you've learned to use your fuse, you'll soon have a jewelry box filled with gorgeous handmade silver creations!

Silver Wire Fusing by Liz Jones
What I liked about the book. The photos were clearl. The texts/instructions were to the point, clear and easy to understand. What I did not like about the book. 1. author failed to mention the kind of tumbler she used. Here, her profressional opinion on the kinds of tumbler matters. 2. she wrote general statements about each tool/equipment she used but didn't categorically say why she preferred this tool or that brand. Other jewelry artist/writers are specific about why they prefer certain brands. Yet, tell you that in general you should look for when purchasing your tools. 3. She only talked of tumbling CZ beads - but remained silent on semi-precious beads. Can one tumble it? 4. Where can one contact her with questions or comments? She didn't place her professional website or email ... What I liked about the book. The photos were clearl. The texts/instructions were to the point, clear and easy to understand.

She didn't place her professional website or email address one could visit or write to. On the whole, I would have wanted her to talk MORE on her experiences handling specific tools/materials as well as state what is not possible or is possible with the materials. .. Even as she should open more possibilities on how to expand the uses of these materials/medium.

Loads of fun!
I have never done any work with a torch before. I picked up this book and within hours I had made a bracelet! There are a wide variety of projects for the beginning metal worker and they are very charming and well designed. If you are itching to start melting some metal this is the perfect book to get you started! Liz Jones explains all of the tools you will need to be familiar with along with very clear instructions for assembling the projects. It's like taking a class without paying for it!!!I have never done any work with a torch before. I picked up this book and within hours I had made a bracelet!

Exactly what I was looking for - basics and beyond!
I had taken a class in silver wire fusing and wanted to expand what I had learned. This book is perfect for what I need, and also for a beginner without classroom instruction. Very clear and concise, it's sure to become a favorite teaching and reference work. Great work!

Helpful but limited
Clear instructions, good photographs, unfortunately very limited in scope--anyone beyond beginner level will not find much here to advance their knowledge.
