Trying not to bore you guys. I figure if Dan can spend time doing four, I might as well. I really need to set my light box back up and take some real photos. They just take too much work. Thulite: And then three WWRs/Needle Peak... This one is one of Dan's cabs: This is a little bit of yellow moss: And this one is from a slab of Needle Peak:

Very nice, I especially like the way you wrapped the last one.

Ohhhh, very pretty!!! I like the thulite cab a lot and the wrap, and the last one, the Needle Peak is probably my fav, it looks really classy and beautiful. They are all great though, nice work all around your house.

You cannot bore us with such beauties! The second one is my favorite.

That last one is awesome! How did you get the moss to settle at the bottom like that? I fell like I could shake it up to get the moss spread out again! I like the first one too - looks like arms around the cab (you know like you're pretending someone is making out with you when you wrap your arms around yourself.... - maybe that's just me....)

Boy I have a lot to learn about doing bails. Great work on these, the curves are just so perfect.

I love that last one and gotta tell you, you have to be the master of swirling the wire. They are all really beautiful.

Kansas girl, you sure have a way of forming elegant bails! Me, I have never even attempted to do a wire wrap, but I am most certainly sure any bail I made by wire wrapping would not even come close to what you are doing. Woody

Thanks everyone for the comments! I have to admit, I look at each of my wraps and all I see are the people who influenced me to wrap. It was a rather eclectic group.

Very nice Ronda... always love your wraps... I like how your style is so diverse too. AND It's really cool to see one of my cabs wrapped by someone as tallented as you...

They are all great looking! The last is my favorite with all the green bubbling up but it sure looks like it has room to fall out if it wanted to but I know it is secure. Fran

The very last step when I wrap is to grab it by the bail and shake it really, really hard to see if it will fall out. I do it right after I do the binding wraps on the bail as well, before I start the decorative part.
