"Chain Mail & Wire Reimagined" unites chain mail and wire techniques to create jewelry with an entirely new look! Jewelry makers will first learn how to shape wire motifs into diamonds, ovals, twists, and more. These wire shapes will then act as decorative links, connecting traditional chain mail weaves. The resulting jewelry is both glamorous and wearable for all occasions. The over 25 elegant projects include necklaces, pendants, and bracelets. The instructions are broken down step-by-step with process photos and illustrations, using common tools, wire, and jump rings. Anyone who enjoys wirework or chain mail will be able to pick up this book and make the projects with success.
Karen Rakoski and Barbara DeYoung are co-authors of Chain Mail & Wire Reimagined. Barbara DeYoung is a chain mail artist from Pittsford, NY. Karen Rakoski writes about and teaches wirework in Spencerport, NY.
