 By Magdalena S. Muldoon. Itís simple to create intricate designs on metal while imparting luster, radiance, and dimension, with the centuries-old art of embossing. This in-depth workshop explains it all: tracing and transferring patterns, cutting designs from the metal and attaching them to a surface, filling in, adding color and patina, finishing and varnishing, and texturizing. Novices will find out how to use a wide variety of tools and products, and follow a project being made from start to finish through close-up images. An entire photographic section showcases a range of embossing designs, with their richly diverse textures. The projects, all with full-size patterns, include frames and framed designs, boxes, clocks, glass items (vases, decanters), and jewelry. 128 pages, soft cover.
