I've been idle for a while. Have done only a couple in the last few months... been busy reading books over the summer. I finally sat down to help Jeremy catch up on some backed up wraps. Both of these I did for people who ordered them. This is a chrysocolla (cab by Jamie) This is a turitella I cabbed... see the seahorse?? It was hard to give this one up and not keep it for myself... especially after I wrapped it!! Thanks for looking. Been a while since I've done anything. Joi

Cool and I do "see horse" sorry couldn't resist - I figure I'll try to get that comment in before Herm types it in!
That turritella is cool! all the ones I've seen have the spiral shells, that 's the first "snail" shell one I've seen
Great wraps by the way - that first on is mightily blue! WOW!!!!

That Seahorse is so cool. I love your wraps too. It's neat that you and Jeremy have your own unique styles of wrapping. Great job on these Joi. Dan

thanks guys. That turitella is just cut the opposite way. Usually they are cut the long way and they reveal the long shells, however, when Jeremy cut these we didnt know what it was or how to cut it right. We have since learned, but we like both ways anyway.
Herm... if I told you, you would blush.
thanks everyone.

I keep telling her she needs to wrap more. I think she is trying to punish me since I haven't gotten her a cab machine yet.

I keep coming back to that last one. I love the echo of the snailshell in the curl and curves at the top.

Glad to see you haven't lost any of your talent, but don't make a habit of not doing any wraps!
