My friend and Lark Senior Editor, Marthe Le Van says that "Your book is the most beautiful, comprehensive, and informative metal clay book on the market, andI expect a great deal of success with it for many years to come."

Whew, am I blushing!! Thanks Marthe! I hope you all find it useful. I have the color proofs and it really looks great. The content consists of EVERYTHING I know about making hollow forms in metal clay, and then some!! Hooray!!!

Face Bead Necklace

Here is a picture of a necklace I made using the Face Beads that I just posted in the Gallery of my website. I can also furnish the striped spacers that you see in between the beads. Just email me at bbbsimon@comcast.net and inquire.
