Fabulous book on working with wire- well written, easy to follow with clear instructions!
Valuable intro to wire and tinkering by talented and creative artist Ellen Wieske. Rare to find a project text that elevates the craft beyond hobby and into sculptural exploration of shape, contour, negative space.
Fabulous material to work with- available, recycled or new.
Colorful layout, accessible, easy to follow and fun. Endless possibilities.
Highly recommended for all students, curios crafters.everyone!Read full review...

Ridiculous Designs/Projects
I do not recommend this book, so many of the projects and their designs are so obscure I think not many people would never want to make them and have no practical use. There are a few good useful projects but not many. Some pictures are poorly photographed and the "how to instructionsons" are very lacking and vague. I had a few good laughs though like at the "bracelet" in the first picture I posted with this review.Read full review...

Wirework by Ellen Wieske (2001, Paperback, Illustrated)
I found this book to be very inspiring! There are some almost alien type of art ideas featured but it is a very cool book. I'm glad i purchased it. If your into avant guard art this may be something you would like.Read full review...
Good quality, useful book.
Well written, useful book. A good starter book for larger, wirework pieces. Covers basic and advanced techniques to create useful objects for the home.
