Some New Age Metaphysical Sufi Dancer might buy them. Should be lots of those in Floriduh. S Seriously, they're kinda cool - I especially like the one on the FAR left.

pebbles i really like the middle one with the beads added on.
sands i think they started at the top loop and swirled their way down ending both wires at the bottom. you can see the ends of the wires at the bottom.

Those crystals look really good Sands... they should sell quick. Also, you might want to try wrapping a few with a thicker wire, for a more substantial look... Silver sets off quartz really well.

Great job Sands, I had tried to wrap a piece of amethyst the size of a pencil tip once with that method but my wire was too bulky and it looked pretty pathetic, but you've done an outstanding job - I assume that it holds in there pretty tightly right?

You did a great job on those crystals, most of the time with crystals like that the simpler the better so the energy of the crystal and flow freely. By the way love the new business card, very eye catching and using the term Cabojohn will have people calling or coming to your business to ask what a Cabojohn is. Tami

Sands funny you would post this now. A couple days ago at work a girl came up to me and asked if I knew how to fix her crystal necklace. I guess the wrap got stretched out and the crystal slips out easy. I told her to super glue it in or take it to a jeweler and get them to tighten the wrap. Wish I'd though to tell her to send it your way LOL.
