I nice stone to work with. I am thinking now that I used too much on this one. and the backside yes that is some druse on the backside, I meant to wrap this side for the front but it was 15 degrees in my workshop when I started and I got in too much of a hurry. Speaking of being in a hurry I just now noticed I named the image wrong too. I have since adjusted the bail to be more even since the scan. Thanks for looking. granpaw

Well done, that turned out great especially for only being 15 degrees in your shop. Tami

granpaw the wrap is perfect and not overdone!
25 ouch! i think it is 28 here now and this is way below my tolerance level. i actually dug out a pair of gloves. they have pink stars all over them but beats the alternative. might put on one of hubby's orange hunting masks too.

Very nice-I like the beads. I know what you mean about working in the cold-It was ALL the way down to 55 while I was working in my garage yesterday. Brrrrrrrr. Karen

I won't even say what it is in here today folks. I'll just say I have two ceramic heaters on high, and the electric furnace vented only to my 10X10 room hasn't shut off yet, running for 3 hours set on 60....Oh the things we do for love (of rocks). ;0)

That's a really really pretty stone and it looks great both ways but I think I like the back best.
Granpaw, I'm with you in the deep freeze and it's not over yet. What we wouldn't give for some 55 temps. It's coming though, only two more full moons and it's spring. *smile*
