I was browsing Etsy today (coincidentally, where MY shop is! - okay, that was a shameless plug) and found this very creative wire-wrapper's shop I thought you'd all enjoy seeing. Gorgeous wire wrapping ideasHappy New Year, Nancy

Nancy, thanks for posting this. I love seeing different ideas and that heart with the wire tree in it is sooooo cool. If it weren't for others posting their work, i'd still be doing bails that look like a mangled mess and my "wave" design.
Going to go look at your itsy shop also (rubs hands together with diabolical intent). lol

Nancy, Yep. I've been mentally putting the tree of life on my list of things to try/tackle. Thanks so much for posting these examples!

I'll be doing the tree soon. I think I have some craft wire, that'll be a good practice.

those are some different ideas. I will leave the trees up to eileento do, she's the best at it, imo.

Hey, Nancy! I saw a movie on youtube a few months back with a lot of those trees on it...and other things, and I thougt is was a cool look for the right stone. One you didn't mind covering up There are a lot of folks now that take a basic wrap and add all kinds of things to it... make wire scenes, etc. but always at the expense of the face of the stone. I kept thinking, "what a great way to sell ugly or plain stones", lol. Tony
