I made these for a friend's sister who is getting married in the end of June. The first one is made with dyed blue pearl and amethyst beads and 2 white teardrop pearls. 22 ga square sterling silver was used for the main body of it. The beads are strung on 24 ga sterling. I may end up re-doing it, though. It all depends on how well my friend likes it. Can you see the 2 hearts? The 2nd one is from a 13mm x 18mm Lapis cab that I bought and 22 ga square sterling. Her brother asked me to make it as his wedding gift for her. It is the smallest I've done so far. Thanks, Bikerrandy, for the inspiration! ;D The shine on the Lapis made it tough to get a decent pic. Back (for Tweetie and others) ;D I'm still working on getting things set up so I can start learning to cab. Thanks for looking. Rus

The bride is going to be even more radiant when she wears these gifts. I do see the two hearts and I love the design. Your Lapis wrap is beautiful also but that first one is just so original.

You did a great job and I am sure they will love them! I also love the lapis but blue is a hard color to resist in a stone. I like your little heart on the lapis too! Fran

That first one is very cool and I can see where your tiny wraps could be incorporated in with great effect. T

Thanks a bunch, all!
Good news! Her brother loves them both just the way they are. I guess that means I'm off the hook. lol No need to re-do, now.
Now, I just hope she likes them. lol
