Booklist—December 15, 2003
"Get inspired with Artistic Wire," invites Peterson in this how-to program. Paper, leather, cardboard, and clay items are embellished with wrapped,coiled, or crimped wire. Shot in her cozy workroom, Peterson clearly explains how to use various gauges of wire, to decorate purses, frames and other objects. A smooth mix of master and close-up shots shows the projects during construction. Specific brand-name wire tools are mentioned, but hobbyist can take or leave the advice."

Creative Wire Jewelry by Kathy Peterson (Watson-Guptill NY Publications)
What I really liked about this book is the fact that the author, Kathy Peterson, uses "artistic wire" exclusively. Artistic wire is less expensive colored wire available in most craft stores. The book covers the basic techniques of using the wig jig and wire worker and provides a useful introduction to other tools & findings used in the book. My particular favorite was the section on wire beads—very simple and yet unique.
