this is going to alabama to a guy i went to college with and he's giving it to his wife for valentine's. it is amazing to me how long i can take to do these things  . my nerves were rattled by the end lol. the beaded necklace is 15" and the pendant is 1-3/4" including the bail. she has a small neck and short hair. is this a good length or does it need more length? the beads on the pendant are a grey but the photo makes them look green   kim |

Good wire wrap! I like the hearts. I used to twist my face and back wires, but I went to not twisting them after a fashion.
Good job.
Noosh, I wrote several tutorials on this forum. All you need to do is sit down and follow them. You two can wrap.

that is GORGEOUS, Kim! you really got the wire wrap thing going! love the beads, too!! 15" is small for a necklace, but if she has a small neck, it should be perfect.
what kind of stone is that?
excellent work!

WOW that is awesome- Oh and I read those tutorials- YEA RIGHT- I will be able to wrap in about a million years- I was lost from the go! Oh well- crafty I'm not (actually it stems from a lack of patience)

thanks all i am still not where i want to be but there is much improvement here from those 1st ones i did. after i practice on a few more of mine - i'm gonna do one of sands.
kd i had 3 different people try it on today and it was a little snug on one but just right for the other 2 but to be on the safe side i'm going to extend it to a 16". better safe than sorry.

Kim that's beautiful. Great job on the wire wrapping. I'm in agreement that you should extend it to at least 16 in.

it is willow creek jasper ed. i had to order some slabs off of e-bay to do this and another one because of the colors they asked for. i have a box full of it but it needed slabbing and until now i couldn't do anything about that.
