Boys' dream come true .......2007-02-07

Ever since shooting a Winchester slide-action rifle in a shooting gallery, it has been my dream to own such a rifle. After many, many years, I finally came across a used Winchester Model 61 that I could buy. A large part of the enjoyment, however, comes from reading up on the history of this type of weapon. I find it fascinating to be able to establish the year the rifle was made and to check whether all the parts are authentic because they were made in the same time-frame.

Beautiful book, but..........2006-05-12

The author started with a great idea of finding inspiration in old paintings. The jewels are far from being perfect copies but their imperfection gives them an appealing style.

However, since this is a how-to book, it should at least introduce the polymer clay to the beginners. The author reduced the subject into a single paragraph. You have to guess where to obtain most of the material; don't look for a list of suppliers, there is none. This "je m'en fous" attitude may work for the French but the English-speaking reader expects a more thorough approach to details.

Beautiful Book.......2006-04-26

This book is just beautiful.Its an inspiration.I love the way they explain the lessons..and I can change them as I like with no problem.using my own inspiration.Its a all skills level book.on just doing that.Im ever so glad I was able to find it and get it.Its just a treasure.B.W.

Absolutely fabulous!!!.......2005-02-15

This book is a must have for those who like to have some inspiration for jewelry that's just a touch different from the trendy stuff you see all around. It's not available in Dutch unfortunately, but I still bought it and haven't regretted it for a single moment. I've had it ever since it came out and I've used it as a source of inspiration lots of times already. I use it for making pendants especially...and the result is always super!!!
The fun thing about it, is that the artist was inspired by art and when I'm in a museum nowadays, I often find myself looking closely at painted jewelry.
This book shows how you can make wonderful and stylish jewelry of very cheap materials. Also, the techniques used are not as difficult or as painstaking as many other polymer clay techniques like making canes for instance. It's a matter of preparing your clay, shaping it in combination with stones, glass, shells...etc...adding some colour with metal powders, baking, cooling, (painting), polishing, varnishing and attaching some findings...Ready!!! You can have a splendid result in one afternoon's work!

An Inspirational How-To Book!.......2003-05-12

I just completed two projects in this book and the pieces turned out beautifully! This is my first foray into the polymer clay medium and I can't wait to create more pieces.

I do not understand some of the previous reviewers' comments about the pieces being unsophisticated etc.... these are reproductions of ANTIQUE pieces which, by definition, didn't use modern "sleeker" methods of metallurgy etc... One reviewer also mentioned that painting with the model paints is a problem. Not so! My only conclusion is that the author of that review didn't try the techniques or didn't follow the directions for painting. The "Testor" brand paints I used worked great.

I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in recreating antique pieces. The projects are easy, fun, and a springboard to use one's own creativity.

Good for inspiration, but lacking in honor.......2002-11-27

As a beginning jeweler who has worked with polymer clay in the past, I was quite excited to read this book. Though it inspired me to create some new pieces, I found the projects offered to be a complete disgrace to the original artists.
