I haven't posted for a few weeks. I did end up getting the job at Petsmart after all. The store manager has faith in me even if the district manager doesn't. Thank you all for your well wishes on the matter. Anyway, I have been wrapping, but not taking photos. I have today off so I took photos of my recent wraps. A crazy Lace in argentium silver. Everytime I ask someone what this stone is, I get a different answer. I like it anyway. It works like a jasper. wrapped in bronze color copper. Chrysocolla? in bronze color copper. This cab has a lot more green in it than the photo shows. The glare covers most of the green. A little crystal I found at Diamond point by Payson. wrapped in Argenium silver. Green goldstone wrapped in 22G argentium and 28G green color copper. I made a viking weave also from the same green wire to match. I have also been making necklaces but did not take photos of them. Thanks for lookin' Amy

Chrysanthemum is the most common name for it and all the others are newer names that it has been dubbed

Hi Amy, Those are great. The stone in the second one is Star Jasper from Mexico, or at least that's what T-Rocks in Quartzsite calls it. That one is my favorite wrap. Love what you're doing with the colors too. Jo

I'm so glad you got the job. Congratulations. These wraps are great. I like how you added colored wire to that goldstone and that viking weave chain is beautiful. That second one is really cool, no matter what it's called.
