I finished these 2 today. I may have gotten a slight bit of inspiration from Tela's posts, and added my own twist on it. I hope that's alright. I really love your work, Tela. You inspire me to try new things.   Thanks, Amy |

Hi Amy! I love your new pieces. It's wonderful that my work gave you inspiration, but I can clearly see your own stamp on these. I love what you did and I love the mixed metals. Your bails are looking good, too. |

Your wraps bring out the beauty of the stones and make each entire piece a winner.

Beautiful pieces!!! I think of the two, the first is my favorite. Love your incorporations of the different color wires, really brings out the best of the stone!!!

Both are beautiful. I'd say the second one stands out to me. I like the way you used the different colors of wire to accent the colors in the stones.

Where do you live? I really need a lesson (well maybe many lessons) on doing the laced bails. I tried doing it with half round 22 or 24 gauge wire. Should I use something else?
I do not care much for the green wire on the first one but that second one is over the top. It looks like we have another top notch wrapper on the forum. Anyone that can do that lace is top notch to me.
