This wrap really made me appreciate the perfect curves and curls you all are able to make ( how do you do that ).I'm not thrilled with the design, but I like the way the bail at the top came out on this one... also, with such a clear stone I wanted to make the back as unobtrusive as possible.... but in the end, I not even sure which side IS the back ;D. we had a decent sunset, so....

Great job and that's a beautiful stone! You are doing an awesome job with the round wire! I really like how you came from behind with the wire and looped it around the other at the left bottom of the bail.

Beautiful! The top looks like the front to me. Very balanced and eye catching!

Chris that is a great wrap. I love your style of wrapping it is really different and with each one you show, shows just how much you are growing with this new hobby. That front design is beautiful.

I agree with the others - I really like what you're doing and that you have your own style!
And that top picture is definitely the front.

That looks really nice and I would think the top is the front. If the stone had a really intense pattern, then I would go with the second picture as the front. Fran

Thank you everyone.... yep, the top is the front but on a black background you can see the swirls right through the stone, so it still looks cool. I'm glad you all liked this one... It was difficult to keep all the wires to lay right but I got it. And I still like how the bail came out... llana, I'm glad you noticed that, it locked everything in place really well. Chris
