Time is winding down until the Gem and mineral show here. I've got about a hundred wraps ready to sell. Wish me luck.

These are the latest to add to the hundred.

I tried to make this look like vines were wrapping it. Did it work?

Crazy lace

Local Agate

Don't know what this stone is. I'm not really happy with the way the wrap turned out in the front. I guess it is ok. What do you think?

And yes I like the last one. I tend toward the simple wraps but it is very pretty and the stone is really nice. Tanya

It really matches the cameo very well. Susan

The vines do look cool and that is a beautiful cameo. I'm not real crazy about that last one, but mostly because I don't tend to like wrapped bails like that, but that's just me. It's interesting how you did the wires on the top although they do cover up the top part of that beautiful cab.

	No person should ask for more than the moments. They should accept what the rock gods offer and make no demands against the future

Thanks everyone. That makes sense. That is hard to see in the picture so I assumed the whole cab was a pretty as the bottom.

Very unusual. They are all very pretty. I love the top of the last one , interesting!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
