I finally figured out how to download pics. the pics are terrible as I am not a photographer and it was a 1 time use throw away camera. 1st pic is a rose quartz wrapped in what I call a wave design. On the back, I wrapped the word "love" hope you can somewhat see it another wave design using brown sea glass that I picked up from the beach. I first loved sea glass then I started loving rocks. A dragonfly I made of silver wire. This middel is green sea glass that I found on the beach. the ends of the wings were created by using a partial wave. That's it for now until I get another disposable camera. Sorry for the poor pic quality. Posting a pic kind of makes me feel official somehow. lol

They seem to be very nice. I like the pendant in the third pic. When you take pics with the flash against that polished wooden table, try not to "look" with the camera perpendicularilly on that surface. If you "look" on an oblique angle the flash effect wouldn't be so visible.

Hi & welcome! From what I can see in the pics, your wraps look really nice. Do you have a tumbler or anything to polish your beach glass & rocks? If not, you can get them pretty inexpensively from a number of sources that you can find here at RTH. We'll be watching for more photos! ;D

Adrian, thanks for the photo tip. I think next time, I will use outdoor natural lighting.
Thanks for the welcome AGATEGRRRL. I don't have any polishing tools and wheels yet, but I have done extensive reading on the threads in RTH that tell you how to make your own. My husband is a whiz at making things so I'm hoping pretty soon to start cabing a few slabs that I have purchased.
Thanks for looking and replying.

One thing that helps when using the flash is to place the item on a dark colored towel. Also, try this one... take some pics outside, during bright sunlight but under a tree. I always seem to capture the shine much better like this. Keep on posting!!

Tweetypy, I am sorry I missed your reply, thank you. I don't have any close ups of these items, however if you are interested in the wave design, I am planning on getting more pics up of stones that I have wrapped in this design.
Again, sorry for the delay.
