This is what I received from Deb. I love this wrap. I have a question for Deb though. I can see that you put a patina on it, but what kind of wire was it to start with? I am guessing copper, but in the sun it looks like brass. What ever it was, the finished result is stunning. And the cabs that came with it. Now the hard part, deciding which cab to wrap. It should be ready to mail by Tuesday. So if I can get an address to send it to by then, I will run it to the post office. I love this game. No one ever loses. Amy

Hey Amy, I'm glad you liked it. I actually tried to do a reverse patina. It was actually antique bronze wire and I took sand paper to it to bring out some of the underlying copper to give it a little pop. I agree, this is fun..... Deb

No wonder I was confused, i never thought about a reverse patina. It came out great. Maybe I will try that next time my bronze wire gets a nick in the bronze. Thanks for the idea.

Great use of the shield shape! I really liked it but couldn't figure what would suit. And I like that reverse patina idea too. I might have to play with that on my tree pendants sometime
