I have run across someone with a free tut on doing chain maille.....I'm kinda hooked and now have another obsession to add to the rocks, cabbing,hunting,tumbling,wire wrapping ..... uggh...so many cool things to do, and so little time in a day.... so this is just a mixed bag of "stuff" I have done this past week... who knew there were so many things you could do with wire?? hahahahaha Byzantine chain maille anklet, with amethyst sworovski's byzantine chain maille with emerald green sworovski's 2 in 2 chain maille sterling earrings with red agate beads Byzanatine chain maille sterling earrings with amethyst sworovski's Colorado Sowbelly agate (from Donna & Ken), with handmade botswanna agate copper chain Lake Superior Moss agate, with handmade copper agate beaded chain Somethin a little wild....2 in 2 chain maille with agate drops, necklace & bracelet Then the last one is also kind of wild, but it's really cool lookin. My bust is not a big one, so is difficult to take a photo of the whole necklace in one shot. It has a 4 inch dangle drop, on a 21 inch handmade copper chain. The stone chips are Malachite,Black Jasper, and quartz Crystal. Well, that's all. Just a buncha cooky, fun stuff....different from my norm. Hope you all like them, and thanks for lookin'!! Marie

Really cool stuff. If it can be done with wire you are one to do it. I must admit that when you said "your bust was not a big one" I thought the necklace was going to be modeled a bit differently.

Beautiful work... I played around doing maille stuff back in college, although more the big heavy SCA stuff, so I truly appreciate the time and effort you put in! keep up the good work, looking forward to the next area you venture into...

All are excellent. There ie no end to your creativity. That is a great asset to have. I am that way too. I want to try everything. But there just isn't enough time.
