I have just begun wire wrapping, and I am enjoying the art, despite the learning curve. Here a few examples of what I have done.
First Effort - Unknown
#2 - Larimar (Christmas gift for my wife)
#3 - Labridorite (Also for the wife)
#4 - Jasper? from San Simeon
#5 - Floy Wash Agate
And Last but not least Jade from the Oregon coast
It sure has been fun, but I have a long way to go . . .

Great job!!!! Try some square wire, it's easier to line up. Parawire or Bella Modo sells a excellant craft wire. Bella Modo has free shipping.

Thanks for the kind words! I actually just bought some square wire at Michaels. The round wire really is a pain. I'll look into those online retailers.

The round just gives a different look. These are very nice for being your first wraps.
