Both are beautiful but I especially like the OJ. Glad to hear you will keep wrapping.

Thought I would give the torch a rest and do a few wraps. First an oj and then a phosphosiderite. Might get another done tonight. I really enjoy wrapping and can't see myself giving it up entirely. I'm glad you are exploring new things but your wrapping has been such an inspiration to me and so many others you had better not even THINK about giving it up entirely. Seriously...I hope you can truly appreciate the level of expertise you are on. Every time I start thinking I've made something that will pass as saleable I look at your stuff and think holy crap how did she even think to wrap that wire there - or twist that thing in that other direction. I think the second one is my favorite - I like OJ but the wrap on the second one is phenomenal.

Thanks guys! Tommy I don't think I could ever give up wrapping, but it is nice when you can take a break and come back fresh. Thank you for your comment. Drummond Island Rocks Yes, there is a patina on the second one. I usually like to leave silver shiny, but with the texture on this, I went ahead with a patina.

These are both fantastic! The second one is my favorite though, with that bail and the patina.

I second what Tommy said. I'm liking both of them but that second one is such a great color and shape. Wish you had time to do a tutorial on the woven bails but I know you are a busy lady.

Thanks I would do a tute for a woven ail, but I seem to remember that someone has done one- at least one someone, can't remember names. Anyway, I would hate to be guilty of plagiarism or whatever it would be called. But, I do think I do mine are different enough that it wouldn't be a problem. Maybe I'll do one. I dunno, like you said, I usually have too many pots on the stove as it is. Honestly, though, I never had instruction for this, I just kinda learned it on my own. Once you do a few it isn't too hard. If you want to try it- you ca pm me questions.

I have to wait on some round wire before I can try it but you can bet I'll pm you if I have questions.
