The journey began while polishing some chevron amethyst in my Lortone rock tumbler. That was a task of it's own. You rock tumblers will most likely know what I mean. The rock sat on my desk while I watched many wire wrapping videos. The final results can be seen below.    |

You even tackled making your own cord ends and custom cord.👍👍 Your pendant is basically completely from scratch which I think is fun and a great skill! I have thought about trying some colored wire as well but haven’t had time yet, so far I’ve just worked with copper. I look forward to seeing more of your projects!

Way to go! Jump right in there. Nice to see you completed the whole piece including the cord ends. I like your use of colored wire and the simple wrap which goes with the stone. Well done! |
