I believe that the fifth one, the first in the second row, is Birdseye? Ryolite. The last one looks like Mexican Crazy Lace. The second to the last looks very similar a dendritic stone that I have, which I do not know exactly what it is. Hopely that helps a little.

Got the box today! That was FAST! I found a gorgeous, sweet wrap with a little butterfly added. Very pretty and feminine.  I also found a ton of cabs. I don't know what they all are. I plan to wrap the brown one in the top of the picture because I really like it and the shape. I'll take out the pau and replace it. The red jasper and hematite is really sparkly- something I haven't seen before. It was also a good candidate for me to wrap, but I stuck with the brown one- whatever it is. So here's the pics. I should have my wrap out by Wed- I'll keep y'all posted.   |

I knew it! I have had that cab forever. It just needed the right wrap to make it special.
It looks great. The butterfly is just perfect for it. I love it.
Thank you magpie for making my cab so pretty.

Beautiful wrap and a good next choice.
Tammy, I am not very good at being straight forward but every time I see you without a nose worries me. I am afraid that if your mouth gets plugged up you will not be able to breathe. Scary thought. lol

Girly is such a departure for me, I'm glad you're pleased with how I treated to stone  And I finally got to use one of the butterflies I've been hoarding! (Regarding noses, I think skipping a nose is great idea, one less place for allergies to attack!) |

I love all the wraps so far! I have to pull out my wire again....I always get caught up in starting a new school year, and rocks and wire get put aside.  All of you are inspiring me again. |

Hello there Roaming Wire friends ! As I stated I did get the box with the cabs and wrap(s) from Tela. Below are the pics of the cabs and wraps. Before you look let me explain a little difference you may notice. The wraps Tela sent me are not from the traveling cabs set. Here is the reason. Tela is a great person , that's why ! She is having difficulties with her hands ,making it a very difficult proposition to do any wrapping or cabbing at this time. She , knowing how much I was looking forward to receiving one of her wraps, felt bad for me and sent me two of her own that she had already made. How awesome is that ! As is customary she kept a couple of the travelers for herself and replaced them with a couple of her own. So if you do notice any irregularities in protocol you now know why. I just want to say thank you to Tela here for her generosity....Thank you Tela !.....Now on to the pics ! First the cabs and then the wraps Tela sent me.  and then the wraps  |

That was very sweet!
Those are awesome wraps. I want lessons in that ornate bail. And sewing the wires back with half round. That tends to involve cursing a lot with me.
Tela-hope your wrists get better soon. Wish I had some wisdom for you. Mine bother me a lot. (Which probably means I should further dial back my pc time- take care!)

Beautiful wraps. Tela, I hope your wrists get better soon. I don't know what kind of surgery you had, but I hope you retain full use of your hands, it would be a catastrophe if your creative genious is denied an outlet for very long. Try not to go stir crazy.

Oh Tela, I didn't know you were having trouble with your wrists! What Amy said, it would be tragic if weren't able to create your wonderful pieces~~
Beautiful cabs too!

Wow!! Tela, I knew you were sending Chris a wrap you'd already made but I didn't know you were sending two! AND such beautiful pieces! What a great bunch of cabs for you to choose from to wrap too Chris! Can't wait to see what you make! This roaming wire just keeps getting better and better!  Krista |

Cool Chris- You explained it better than I could. LOL! I'm really glad you are happy with how it worked out. I have to say that Susan24224 cabbed the red jasper and hematite pendant cab. I did a trade with her when I first got to RTH and this was one of the stones. I love the shape, very unique. Actually, everyone, it's not my wrists, it's my actual hands. The flesh part. I have blistering psoriasis on my hands (and feet) and sometimes it can get real bad- like now. I try to work, but I can't- so I putter... and go stir crazy... and work on my shops... and look at pretty rocks. LOL! |

Tela, I am so glad it is not permanent damage. Only off and on. I wish you a speedy recovery so you can get back to doing what you love, and what we all enjoy seeing.

I reread this thread to see where I got mixed up. Krista was having the wrist surgery. So glad you are doing better, Krista, are you back to wrapping yet?
