Hi everyone! I'm back with another wrap! This time I used real wire! (Sterling silver square, and half round) This wire works a lot better than craft wire, that's for sure! ;D This is my first wrap with that kind of stuff, and only my 9th wrap in general! It's one that my dad tumbled...not a cab. Hope you like it! Feel free to criticize! Front: Back: Thanks for looking! ;D

Excellent wrap, very smooth and simple, not covering up the stone. Love that stone too! Way to go!

The beauty of wrapping a tumble is if the back is nice and neat, you can wear it either way and your wrap is super neat!
Your bindings are really tight and clean. One suggestion, keep the binding ends on the inside of the wire. It will keep your perfect bindings looking more perfect and will avoid the chance of the ends catching on clothing.
Looking forward to seeing more of your wraps. This one is simply beautiful.

No possible criticism on this one! The only helpful suggestion is what sitnwrap said and that is just part of the learning experience. You really did a great job on accentuating the beauty of the stone! Fran

outstanding job, on the stone & wrap both. the way to fix the outside wire ends is simply pry them up & clip them as close to the stone as possible. nobody will ever know that that's not the way you intended. great work. keep it up. Jo
