Jewelry Stringing, Spring 2016

In the Spring 2016 issue of Jewelry Stringing magazine we’re celebrating all there is to love about spring. In our annual “color” issue, we present two color-based collections: Sugar Coated features designs with smooth, matte  surfaces and pastel hues, and Secret Garden is a palette encompassing spring hues and floral motifs. Talisman jewelry has been extremely popular, so we’ve assembled eight designs that put a contemporary spin on age-old symbolism. We also present a collection of mixed-media designs with techniques and materials including metal stamping, fabric, rivets, and more. In our brand-new department, Leather Style, you’ll enjoy making a distinctive and exciting project using leather. And to help you plan your next project, our feature article provides the basics of how color (specifically hue, value, and saturation) affects any design. GET YOUR COPY HERE.
