I haven't been doing much wrapping lately but I got inspired so I did these two. The pictures aren't the best but I wanted to share while I had decent Internet. I also made the chain in the pictures but couldn't get a good picture of it separately.  Plume agate in gold-filled wire (this is one of Mudsharks fantastic cabs..thanks Mike  Biggs jasper in gold-filled wire (this is a cab made by bikerrandy..thanks Randy) the picture is a little dark but the pattern in this cab is great [/a] |

Nice work Diane! My son has started doing wire wrapping and metal work (using old silver utensils)... someday I hope to be able to show off some his wrapping on my cabs...

Hey Diane hope your Mom and you are good! Those are great wraps but that bail on the first one is my fav!!! You know me I love simple and rustic and gold suits those cabs color so well!

Very nice wraps. Is the necklace made from 20 gauge wire? I like that too.

Gorgeous wraps and chains, drocknut!  I'm glad you got back to wrapping! Hope you get some tools so you can get back to metal smithing, too. |

Thanks gingerkid. I may eventually get some metal smithing tools but for now at least I have my wire wrapping tools to work with.
