Tarina Tarantino's love affair with DIY jewelry and accessories began when she was a just a little girl, with each old sweater or bead that she took from her grandmother's closet and repurposed into a new tank top, headband, or necklace. Eventually, Tarina grew up and moved to Paris to pursue modeling, but never stopped making jewelry on the side. Pretty soon she was selling her pieces to stylists and photographers, leading to her now famous jewelry and accessories brand, The Sparkle Factory. In this inspirational and beautiful book, jewelry- and DIY lovers will learn how to make 20 of Tarina's most essential pieces, including stretch bracelets, cocktail rings, hair clips, bag candy, and more. Fans of Tarina will also learn all about her brand and how it got started as well as information on finding your own style, tools and techniques, using materials and color schemes, and more. The text is complemented by tips, advice, and 100-150 full-color photos throughout.
