I first wrapped this Bloodstone Agate in gold, but it looked like a big green rock in a pendant. It was too ordinary - like a rock in the yard. In the light you can see there is spots of red under the heavy dark green. Then, I decided to try a silver wrap to see if it would draw attention to the stone or be different enough to at least provide a bright color to what looks like a dark stone. I've taken my wire wrap to the next level - I now have an Etsy store: www.etsy.com/shop/JewelrybyChristyIf you get a chance, please check it out and tell me what you think of the store or this wrap. Thanks, ChristySW Attachments:

Great job on the wrap!! Great store too  Hey, have you ever tried to wrap a freeform cab? It's much easier than most people think. I started doing it two years ago and it's all I do now. Your work looks very nice, keep on posting pics!! |
