Jill Haglund

TweetyJill Publications, Inc., 2005

Great book!
I was so happy to get a book that I have no regrets about buying. This book isn't just inspirational eye candy, although it is that too. Unlike so many other collage and craft books, this one includes clear instructions for doing the projects and a good resource list. I bought her other book, Artists Creating with Photos, and it's excellent also.

Teena Flanner

Lark Books (NC), 2007

Inspiring!
If you are creative and resourceful, this book is a guide AND an inspiration. There are a handful of projects that don't call for a mold, including her ever-popular snowmen. The rest?

This book gave me ...

Love this Creative Expoloration of Resin!
Ever since I saw my first superchunky, gorgeous colored resin bangle, available for sale at an online store back in the early 2000's, I have been intrigued by the mystique of always different resin jewelry.

Now I spot brilliant fabulous clear resin jewlery, with pretty silver embellishments, and inlaid semiprecious stones, for ...
