While I twiddle my toes waiting for cabbing season, I got a few wraps done. One I have shown before, but I patinaed it and thought I would share the difference.

Without patina. Actually, I applied a little to highlight the coils, but the los bled and looked crappy, so I decided to patina the whole thing.

Full patina on eudialite/eudialyte

OJ with wheels and druzy. This is more of a slice than a cab. It was a freebie from one of my favorite sellers. 49minerals

I did this on one of the really fine sunny days between the cold and drab days.

I got a small slab of this sonora sunrise with great pattern. I got three matching cabs.

Just finished this natural freeform ammolite and took a picture in the kitchen. Love the red colors and black suture line. I put the bail on backwards and didn't notice till I saw the close up pictures! I have since turned it around.

Thanks for looking! If I can get some decent pictures of a few cabs I managed to do, I'll post those, too.

Thanks, but just so you know, I don't cab everything I wrap. I still buy cabs that I fall in love with.
