A couple wraps done for our show coming up. First of at least 20 we need to make. Both stones are from our red river rock that we got at a local nursery. We are having the show at this nursery so we are going to try to showcase their stones. It will be just us... no competition. Gold round wire on this one. The stone reminds me of a feather...  sterling square on this one. Various shades of pink in this one. Interesting markings in this one, despite the pits. Unfortunately I marred the front wires on this one a little...   Thanks for looking |

You did a wonderful job on those. I have found that most people really don't notice the maring of the wire.

Sweet wraps! I like the stones too. Quite a find at a nursery of all places. I guess it's good to keep looking for rocks wherever you go. How many are you doing for the show total? What kind of show it it?

The show is the 21st. We went back to the nursery to buy another bag of rocks. A worker there took our card and showed it to his GM who gave us a call and asked us if we'd like to set up. It will be just us as far as I know, at least the only ones with jewelry. We are going to make about 20 wraps to take, at least. They are only charging us 10% of our sales. So if we dont sell anything then we haven't lost anything except our time. Thanks everyone for looking.

Those look great! Bummer that it's on the 21st, I would have stopped by to say hi but I'm going to be at the bike classic. Tell Jeremy that he has a pile of slabbed dino bone, mookaite, and a couple of mine waiting for him.  |
