Bejewelme gave me a tumbled cross that she had received from Builtonrock. It is a very pretty ocean jasper. I finally wrapped it tonight. Here is a lapis cab I did a while back and finally wrapped for a family friend. Thanks for looking. Fran

Fran, I don't see any rust at all.... those look great!!! Aren't those little crosses fun ( and a little tricky )? I love seeing all the different ways we wrap them ... And the lapis look great as well... Nice way to show off the stone...

Very nice of Amber and I like how you did the diagonal- wouldn't have thought of that and it looks great. You friend is gonna be tickled with the Lapis. You are clever wrapper. Jo

Uh Oh! I see a little rust up under the right side next to the left wire going down to the back side next to the bail. ;D ;D Just kidding. You did a great job. Ken

You did a beautiful job on both. Both designs are really beautiful. I love the cross over of wires in the cross and I just love the design on the Lapis. Someone must have oiled you when you weren't looking.

I thought I commented here already! They're both terrific.
I had to look twice at the lapis cab. It blended in to the background and I was trying to figure out how you cut it!

Those are really nice! In the photos, it looks like copper wire - is that what it is? It goes well with the stones. I'm trying to decide what flavor wire to make my "favorite" - silver is pretty, but really expensive, especially for a wet-behind-the-ears beginner like me, but I also like copper, and it should be a lot less costly when I screw it up, right?

The wire I used is actually silver. It seems a little tarnished even though it is the tarnish resistant stuff... Fran
