They look great. You have the makings of a champion wrapper.

I think you did great. Looks like you learned from you first one the mistakes. It has loose wrap and a wrap with the 1/2 round flat side out. Also shouldnt leave loose ends like on the left side. In the last one you should bend the ends of the wraps in tight to the wire.
You did a fantastic job on them.

Awesome!!!!!! So glad you decided to post them!!!!! Hey guys, this is a friend of mine from Facebook, aint it awesome her first 4 wraps look like that?  ? man!!! mine sure didn't hahahahaha!!!! These are awesome, and please keep posting! Everyone here is so great, you'll never wanna leave! I agree with Ken, it does look like you learned very fast from your first one, but I think I am most impressed by the not kinking your wire while making the swirls, that is awesome! Good job!!!

Thanks everyone! I've been enjoying looking through the pictures here and drooling!  Actually, Roger, the four posted are my first four, but the second two were done one after the other and there was some time between the first two and the second two. I like to try something once or twice and then sit back and analyze what I did wrong or where I can improve. So, they weren't all done in one day or sitting. Ken, thank you for pointing out the loose ends, I'll take care of them. It always help for others to look and see the things I don't. Marie, I'm such an analyzer. After the first two, I wanted to do so much better so I came back here (lurking) and looked back over the tutorials and dissected as much as I could so I would improve. It's not in the budget to use the materials and not produce something worth looking at. LOL I'm waiting on a small package of supplies, they would have been here today, but no mail.  I'm looking forward to seeing what I can do with the new stuff. I did discover today that I do not like round...yet. Maybe after some practice I might, but for now I'm not liking it! LOL |

I wish my first four had looked that good--or my first twenty, for that matter. Nice job!
