Sue has always been an innovator and this book takes a new angle on working with metal clay. Aimed at beginners as well as more advanced metal clay enthusiasts, the book takes the approach that expensive equipment such as kilns and large tools are unnecessary when working in metal clays. Virtually all of the projects can be fired using a gas hob or blow torch and the emphasis is on high quality finish and design.

Also in the book are Sue's fabulous new and easy techniques for creating silver clay beads without using core material; new and original ways of working with paper clay; and a new take on cold set resins to simulate enamels. There is a section on fusing dichroic glass cabochons and combining them with the silver clay, ring making galore and how to add gems, polymer clay for colour, and gold.
