Hey, I am still here. getting ready for the gem and mineral show in October. Here is what I have made lately.

This is a Peach quartz? I found locally and made a pendant for my Mom to give to a friend as a gift.

Her friend liked it so much, now my mom wants earrings to go with it for her friends birthday.

A Paul Bunyan agate with garnets.

Denim Lapis

Tiger Iron. this shot shows the wrap.

This shot shows the color in the stone. However neither does it justice.

A dino bone from my friend in Moab Utah.

This closup shows how the pockets between the yellow outlines are clear and you can see into the stone.

Another Dino bone from Moab, this one I bought from the rock shop in Moab.

A closeup shows the color better.

Thanks for lookin,

Amy

Amy, you've done a beautiful job on all of them. I'm kind of partial to the one you found--lovely color, and there's just something special about the ones you find yourself--topped off with the perfect wrap.

I am glad you like my style of wrapping. I basically learned how from you. Your tutorial is the best one I have ever seen. Of course then I added my own style to it. Thanks Randy. Amy

I appreciate that

I'm gonna do another one of these days, I've figured out easier ways to do a few things that make for a cleaner look. You've definitely got this figured out, every one of your pieces is right on!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
