Hello there!  We are getting so much great feed back on our book:
                                                  Making Wire and Bead Jewelry!  It is so exciting!!

Blogs around the country are commenting on what a good book it is...easy to follow and full of information.  For those of you that have always wanted to try wire working the 500 pictures will really help.  For those of you that are self taught....or it has been a while since you've worked on your techniques, this book will help you too!  Then...if that is not enough...there are many great projects to make.  CHECK IT OUT!

Another thing I wanted to share with you is our friend Cher Sweeny, an amazing bead maker, is making sets of beads that she is selling on Etsy that go with the projects in the book.   Many of the glass beads used in the book are hers.  Check out her store...she puts up new ones all the time!
Here is a link to one of them!

Thanks so all of you that have already bought the book!  Love to hear what you think!

Let's try this again...

Long time no see! I am going to try to be better at this blogging thing....fingers crossed!
As some of you may know...my new wire working book is finally out!
Janice Berkebile worked long and hard at putting together this informative and artful book. In it you will find lots of great information on tools, materials and a lot of solid wire working techniques. Using the information and the 500...yes I said...500 photos....you will be able to create the fun projects in this book and beyond!
I hope you will grab this book up and enjoy every page!
