These fabulous pieces use basic techniques, such as bending, wrapping, and making simple spirals, along with different types of wire that range from sterling silver to gold-filled to copper to colorful craft wires. Guided by numerous photographs and easy-to-follow instructions, even novice crafters can create simple flat shapes, move on to wrapped silhouettes or freeform wound balls, and then smoothly produce three-dimensional forms. The projects use commercially made chain, ribbon, or cording to showcase the variety of unique, one-of-a-kind wire shapes. Item #154537
