Here are some new ones. I finaly got some argentium silver dead soft. It is soooo easy to work with. I love it. I'm having fun with beads. This is white agate with pink glass beads, in sterling silver. Picasso stone with picasso stone? beads in Argentium. Leopardskin Jasper in Gold filled. I got carried away with the curlies here, but leopardskin is just askin for curlies. Little Rodeo Flats agate in Argentium. Little flame agate in Stering Silver. Thanks for lookin. Amy

These are really pretty. Boy, leopard skin is such a fun stone to begin with and you just made it that much more with those curly cues. The words "subdued elegance" came to mind while looking at the flame agate.
That white agate is absolutely gorgeous. I love the beading design and how it just seems to naturally flow with the stone. Just beautiful.

Really cool batch of wraps! I think I like that flow in your first one and this is the first time I have ever thought I might have to try working a few beads in. Never thought I would think that but you have inspired me! Fran

These are all beautiful. I'm a fan of dead soft argentium wire too. The curlies on that jasper are great and so even. You did go a little crazy on the beads on that first one but since the cab is white agate it works. Keep up the great work.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad I can inspire you. Drocknut, I did think that the white agate needed some color and the design just worked better with a lot of beads. I refuse to use plastic beads. Only stone or glass, or silver plated.

Only stone or glass, or silver plated. I agree, the beads do add good color to that white agate. I'm with you on the beads, I hate the plastic beads. When I do use beads I stick with stone or metal (plated or solid).
