Wow, those are unreal!! It seems that you can wrap anything, no matter what the shape is. You definately have the knack for this stuff, the seashell really shows it. The fire agate is probably my favorite, but everything looks professional. Well done!!

Amethyst, bumpy, and turquoise heart are my faves. The shell is cool too! Wonderful work!

I love the dino bone one with the bead-y eyes! And the seashell is outstanding. I love Joi's amethyst one, and the unknown near the bottom.

Each one is absolutely incredible. Where did you start learning how to do it? My girlfriend wants to learn.

I think I love them all. I have a soft spot in my heart for the shell since that's about all we have here!!! I just looked at your website and fell head over heals in love with the azurite/malachite (sp?) but it's sold. Darn You both do beautiful work and I like the additional of an occasional bead here or there. Could the second one be blue Holley agate? Susan

SERIOUSLY? Self-taught? No tutorials? Nobody showed you anything? You just bought some wire and started twisting and bending?
What tools are needed? Are there specialy tools, or do you just use common tools that most people would have in a toolbox?

michaeljohn yes I am self taught. As far as tools I use basic pliers except the ones I use are non serrated and small enough to do what I need. However about 90% of it is hands only no tools. Tools leave marks.
