Hope you like'em. I am using a different camera, so hopefully these pics are better than before. (my other camera trashed yesterday!!) I have had this one awhile, but didn't have a charger for it. I cropped all these pics down, but I see 1 didn't work...oh well, 1 miss ain't bad! LOL Thanks for lookin'! Marie

Like the first wrap best, and the one right before the huge pic next. Like the copper best with the stones that aren't predominately red/brown. Great work again.

You're work is cleaner each time that you post, these are the best so far. I like the first one, and the second from the last one the best, they're clean and simple. All look great, the stones look great too!

I like ALL of them, Marie - are these some of the ones you did with the Dremel?

I'll pick favorites from this batch - #3, #9, and #12 - because of the particular finesse and/or uniqueness of the wraps.

I love the nice clean flow they all have!

Thanks everyone!
Tom- yes the tumbled stones were "cleaned up" using the dremel, but not at all attempted to make "cabs". The cabs will be a few more weeks before they come out of the tumbler, had another load in to finish first. I like cleaning the agates up especially, because they take less than 1/2 the time to finish! Love it!!
