The Art Of Resin Jewelry
Posted on | March 6, 2012 | No Comments
The Art Of Resin Jewelry, by Sherri Haab, is my favorite kind of craft book.
It’s rich with instructive text and photos, but most of the ”boring” stuff is mixed in with the projects. Yes, there are 34 pages of instructions before the first project begins, but there are many more pages of techniques and tutorials throughout the book. This way, instead of being overwhelmed by the amount of material there is to learn, I can digest a small bit at a time, as I actually do a project.
Why such an emphasis on instruction?
Because The Art Of Resin Jewelry is quite technical. Besides teaching us how to use resin, Ms. Haab also delves into jewelry making, making molds, and working with polymer clay. She covers quite a bit of information, in plenty of detail.
As far as the projects, most of them are lovely. The projects in which Ms. Haab allows the shape and colors of the resin to be the primary decorative element are both elegant and stylish. Perfect!
Is The Art Of Resin Jewelry flawless?
Close, but no cigar. I could have done without those (very) few jewelry items in which glitter is used as an embellishment.
However, glitter aside, The Art Of Resin Jewelry is one of most beloved items on my bookshelf. It can’t be beat for bright and attractive photography, clear how-to’s and imaginative designs. It’s a real winner!
