McCreight

Since Precious Metal Clay (PMC) was introduced to artists in the United States three years ago, thousands of jewelers, beadmakers and polymer clay artists have discovered its huge potential. Until now the only text on the subject has been a translation of a Japanese book, but that's about to change. Tim McCreight, one of the first American designers to work with PMC, has created an information-filled book suited to beginners and professionals. The first section consists of 50 projects that teach how to use the material by showing specific applications. Use these ideas or modify them to make your own work - either way you'll find a wealth of information on every page. A second section includes 25 techniques, while a third part describes 15 tools you can make for yourself. This is a must-have book for anyone interested in this revolutionary new material.
