Rejuvenated Jewels by Amy Hanna, my most favourite book in the whole world.

Today, I would like to tell you about my most favourite book ever!
Rejuvenated Jewels by Amy Hanna-
New designs from vintage treasures.
I bought this book about 6 months ago and I haven't put it down since! I keep it on my bedside table and every night before I turn out the light I have a little flick through :)
This book is totally me!
It is everything I love, and everything I want to be and do, it completely inspired me!
The photographs in the book, and on Amy's blog are stunning, I could look at them all day.
This book is suitable for all, from the novice to the experienced jewellery maker.
The first chapter covers, materials, equipment and techniques- everything you need to know to get you started. Other chapters include, cameos revisited, souvenirs & keepsakes, french inspirations, pictures of the past, and relics retold, each giving clear instructions on how to make a number of necklaces, bracelets and earrings.
You must take a look at this book, or visit Amy's blog, you too will be inspired, trust me on this one!
Here are some more mouthwatering images of Amy's work, taken from her blog.
Visit Amy's shop on etsy.
Whilst on the hunt for images from Amy's book to put in this post (haven't yet fathomed out how to work my scanner), I came across Corey at Tongue in cheek, who had also wrote a review on Rejuvenated Jewels. Corey is an American lady, who has lived in France with her french husband for 20 years. Corey and Amy met when Amy saw pictures of broken jewellery on Corey's blog and asked if she would source more treasures for her to use in her designs.
I'm smitten, are you???
