Coming from a person who says she doesn't like odd shapes, this is extraordinary! (It's extraordinary anyway.) I really like the weave used with that, and am especially impressed with the way the back is secured, since the "shadow" it creates on the back of this translucent stone is esthetically pleasing. Way to go on a difficult wrapping shape! And thank you, drocknut , for your photos. Too funny Susan- you're right I was concerned not having a lot of wrapping experience behind me, to do that shape, but I think it turned out OK.
Actually I think I have to add that shape to my "nice to wrap" list. Thank you, Patty

Beautiful wrap, Patty liveoak! That was my second choice to wrap. Your prongs look great and the weave- nice way to pull them together!  |

Thank you Tela rockjunquie . In some ways I feel like the prongs with a weave are cheating or something. But I like the security they give, so I tried to keep them small.
Thanks for noticing
Patty

Very nice! I like the prong style and I especially like the presentation, the pendant card and box that are included. The photos turned out great too!

Presentation is half the battle.
When I was selling stuff I found that to be most important.
It certainly makes a nicer gift to give someone.

What's wrong Diane? You OK? Yes, I'm ok. Just a little down in the dumps and not feeling very creative. |

Yes, I'm ok. Just a little down in the dumps and not feeling very creative. So the best advice I can offer Diane is to go out and take a walk in the woods (some natural area). Get out in the sun & clear your mind.

No hurry on my end Dianne. Take your time. I'm dealing with a lot right now. I can do this when it gets here, but no hurry.

No woods nearby unfortunately but I am going rockhounding in the desert so that will make me feel better. Thanks for the advice. |
