Making Jewellery Magazine January 2018 Retour à l'édition précédente

This month we’re embracing the heart of winter with 70 fire and ice themed designs. New year is the perfect opportunity to break out the freshest and most exciting jewellery you can get your pliers on. Plus, it’s a great time for us to welcome a whole heap of new contributors – providing different styles and ideas. Lisa Floyd presents us with her captivating copper Fire Agate and Rock Crystal; Jude Goswell brings her enchanting Snowflake Sparkle, a surprisingly simple project to help you while away the dark winter nights; turn heads with the striking Ikat Candy and as always, much more! If it’s techniques you’re after, try traditional Japanese braiding with Pru Mcrae’s Kumihimo –which has been used for many purposes over the centuries. Or explore EFColor enameling with a detailed introduction to the technique (a great way to get the glossy, vibrant look without the expense of a kiln) and a bright project to go with it. Every reader will get insight on how jeweller Leonie Marks’ business benefited from Jewellery Business Bootcamp, as well as the latest jewellery news, inspiration, fashion, product test and reviews. So be all set for a fantastic start to the year with this month’s issue of Making Jewellery.
