Reviews"Greek leather wrapped with wire flowers!?! You had me at hello, Brenda! This is Brenda Schweder's new book, Steel Wire Jewelry . It's hot, hot, hot. I love it! The layout of the book is great, the projects are very clear, interesting and playful. If you like Calder's jewelry, then you're really going to love this book because it is especially whimsical and festive with all the loopy lines and such. I believe you can make these projects out of almost any wire. Colored, sterling, gold filled ... let's play already!" -- Candie Cooper / SavvyCrafter blog " Steel Wire Jewelry is a book I really like. It's no surprise: I like wire work, I like alternative materials, and with the price of gold and silver these days, who doesn't need another option of materials to work with? The 35 projects range from whimsical to sophisticated. They include directions for necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings (and) also ways to capture focal pieces that can be incorporated into these pieces. This book is fun and inspirational." -- Gail Lannum / Gail's Tales and Jewelry Designs blog "The projects are very imaginative and even whimsical at times. Found objects are sprinkled in here and there. The projects get more complex as you move along, but new skills and techniques are explained very well. I love this book." -- The Bead Dreamer, "An inspiring collection showing readers how to work with steel wire. The designs are contemporary in style and (have) an urban, edgy industrial look about them." - Pearl Blay   "Brenda''s projects are well suited to wire''s assets. I love all of the projects (and) especially the Lotus Ring and her techniques for setting stones in pendants. Brenda is a master." - Cindy Gimbrone   "Inspired by designer Alexander Calder, Brenda Schweder takes steel wire and turns it into fashionable jewelry. All 35 edgy projects are perfect for the beginner." - BeadStyle Magazine   "Greek leather wrapped with wire flowers!?! You had me at hello, Brenda! This is Brenda Schweder''s new book, Steel Wire Jewelry . It''s hot, hot, hot. I love it!

Brenda says, ''The thrill of taking something so ordinary and transforming it into something so special and uncommon stirs my heart.'' Her pieces stir my heart and funny bone, too. Each project is unique and witty." - Craft Gossip   "The projects are very imaginative and even whimsical at times. Found objects are sprinkled in here and there.

I love this book." - The Bead Dreamer   "Reading through this book, I found myself laughing on occasion. Brenda Schweder seems like a fun and creative artist who has really infused her personality throughout the text. Her jewelry designs also show off this unique personality, and she obviously knows a great deal about jewelry. Steel is not a typical material to use, so her guide is a great way to learn how to work with this material without having to do a lot of trial and error." - About.com: Jewelry Making   "The projects Brenda Schweder shows are easy to follow and have great illustrations. You will definitely be inspired to make them all. If you have not played with steel wire before, I assure you, you will love it!" - Lorena Angulo blog "With this ordinary material, Schweder wraps, pounds, cuts, and sculpts jewelry objects that are not only beautiful. They are profound. The copy is well-written, the layouts are clean, and the projects are inspiring. Steel Wire Jewelry is a book that is so very now-as it empowers us to explore all that our imaginations hold, in terms of fantastic wire jewelry designs, with a material that is affordable, stunning, and yes ... profound." - CRESCENDOh blog, "An inspiring collection showing readers how to work with steel wire. The designs are contemporary in style and (have) an urban, edgy industrial look about them." - Pearl Blay   "Brenda's projects are well suited to wire's assets.
