Well I haven't posted any of my wraps on here for quite some time so I thought I'd add a few in here. This is a tumbled red tiger eye wrapped in copper.  A pretty piece of Labradorite in Argentium.  This piece was tricky to figure out, I was commissioned to do a four leaf clover for St. Patrick's Day, how do you think it turned out? Malachite in round Argentium.  This is my favorite piece, I wear it all the time, I ran across a girl selling white gold filled wire remnants, so this is a piece of amber in the 2 feet of square she had left. If anyone knows where to buy white gold-filled I'm interested   Set of Larimar in Argentium  Amethyst in Argentium  And my last one for now is another piece of Labradorite I wrapped for Valentines Day  What do you think? - Krista |

Beautiful stuff. I love the Amethyst.
I am also looking for white gold fill. Would love to find some.

I like the first one best and hen the larimar ones.. They are all absolutely beautiful. I love your style of swirlies. They flow around the bail so elegantly.

I think they all look nice as well, but my (lack of) creative spirit is particularly drawn to the shamrock. Nice job putting together those stones!

Those are all show stoppers. Great job. The four leaf clover is really a great design. I applaud you on the Larimar set, especially the earrings. I have a terrible time trying to get earrings to look the same (even roughly) so haven't even attempted to wrap small cabs for earrings.

Very few people can do wire wrapping of this quality, and even fewer at your age. That's some of the best work that I've seen on here.....you're awesome!!  |

Yup, and boy is it expensive! I sent the shop owner a message about square wire and asked if she had access, also for a by the foot quote if they did. Thanks Barbara!
