Step into summer with this issue of Making Jewellery, packed full of projects and inspiration, whatever your jewellery style. Bigger is better with our oversized polymer bangle and a stunning woven metalwork collar, or you could play it subtle with a metal clay and acrylic brooch and a woven PMC flex pendant. We show you how to make your own Photopolymer plates so that you can make clay designs that are truly bespoke, plus there are simple, colourful flowers to make. Beaders will love the peyote tube necklace that can be worn two ways. Plus, we’ve got lots of great interviews with jewellers, fashion inspiration, and hundreds of pounds worth of giveaway prizes to win. Come rain or shine, it’s time to get making jewellery!
