Odds and Ends

Have you praised your child lately?
The link above is a video short done by a college student. I think it was worth watching, hope you do too.


So, i'm working on a few things. Here is a set of earrings I did with the square wire. They need a little bit more work but I love the look of the Jade with the copper.

These will be available on my AF shop tomorrow.
I made jump rings with the wire. It was slow going but well worth it. I've started a couple things with those. Here's one, this is a section of Full Persian. The square wire gives it a nice look and I think it would make a nice mans bracelet.

This is a section of Helm Chain with silver plate and the square copper rings. I think I like this one better. It shows off the copper more.

So thats what i've been doin. Back to it, see you tomorrow..

Wire Wrapping

This is my first complete necklace in wire wrapping. i guess i'm satisfied with it. I love Jade, I think it's so classy looking. I used silver colored copper wire to wrap the 10mm Jade cabachon, I put a double chain on it because it is a rather heavy piece and i think the chain looks better like that anyway. There are some good articles on wire wrapping that I found quite helpful.
