In a weird turn of events I sold every wire wrap I had done all at one time. I think it was around 18-20 wraps. One of my relatives wanted to take some wraps to work so the girls in the office could pick one out to give the boss as a Christmas gift so I gave her my whole tray so they would have a bunch to choose from. During that week she sold all the wraps and came back to my house three times to drop off money and pick up more items including a handfull of glue on bail pendants and Keychains too. The only downside was that I really liked having those wraps on hand to use as reference when doing more wraps. I had to go back and look at my old pictures to do these three today. I will add a patina to these next time I mix up a batch but I thought these photos looked good with the raw copper specimen.    25x18 Larsonite (gary green)  Thanks for looking, Chuck |

Bummer, what a sad turn of events. Your basement must be very empty. I'm glad to see that you've started replenishing your stock.

Not complaining at all. I made them with the intentions of selling them but didn't realize how attached I would get after putting all the time and work into slabbing, cabbing and wrapping them. My Aunt is obviously a much better salesperson then me since I took the same wraps to a craft show where over 500 people attended and only sold one. She sold all the rest to six ladies and one man in her office. I did give her my best wrap for Christmas (Malachite in silver) as a thank you. Chuck |

Congrats on the sales. I wonder if your Aunt would give lessons, I'm not a salesperson either.
