Here are 3 cabs that Jamie sent me. I started out to do 4 but you'll see what happens when you drop one I think I can fix it though . Mine aren't near as smooth as Kim's, but I'm watching her and learning . I think these are all chryscolla? Not sure I spelled that right. Some of these pics looks like the wire is all scratched up, but in reality, it's only alittle scratched. It's also dirty. LOL From my fingers, shoulda wiped them before I took the pictures. 20 g hh hr 14k gold 20 g ds sq ss 20 g ds r 14k gold Tweety, here's the backs for you hun. The back of this one is alittle busy, but I couldn't figure out what to do with the wires because of how I brought them around from the front. I didn't like the back of this so after looking at it longer, I decided to change it. I think this may be better. I dropped this one. I wasn't happy. It was shaped like a kite and my son wanted it. Till I dropped it. I think I can fix it. Sorry Jamie . Now this is an experiment, and the wire is scratched up but it's ok because I will be redoing this. My mom asked me to make some cages for her perals (sp). So I played around with this one for awhile. I'm going to take it to her and see if this is what she had in mind. If so, I'll do them over in 14k deadsoft round wire. I think she wanted these for earrings, so I probably need to make them alittle smaller. Well Thanks for looking and any suggestions from the pros would be excellent!! I hope I did them well enough Jamie. Tonja

You have been paying close attention Tonja, those look great. Maybe you could change the angle of the cab that broke and just make it a smaller kite.

Tonja - I so loooooooooooooove you! thanks for posting the backs - you may not understand my obsession with that but I never know how to finish off the wires in the back and this gives me ideas - since the pendant may turn as it is being worn
As for the kite, you may be able to glue it and wrap it, it may not show with a well placed bit of wire - it looks like a nice fracture (if that even exists)
