You forget how you did something and it is sold, so you can't look at it? I have well over 1000 distinct wraps. I go through pictures to get inspired. I am wrapping an OJ in the same shape and wondered if I could do it similar to this. Not! One of my favorite pieces. Pink Chalcedony limb cast Texas Springs. I should never have sold it. Add it to the list.

Just the other day I ran across that "spaced" binding wire like at the bottom...might have been one of your other pieces...I don't remember whose it was. Anywho...I really love the look of that. Another piece of yours that just makes me drool! As far as not remembering...I feel lucky most days when I can remember how to tie my shoes...let alone an obscure wrapping technique! LOL Hang in there...don't hang it up!

Thanks Jason. Yeah, my memory is aging.
It probably was one of mine. I've done it a bunch of times. I don't think I have seen any one else doing it. I thought I had seen you do it before, though.

Ok Tela rockjunquie, you just blew me away with this one! It is absolutely stunning. Can I ask what you are not remembering how to do?

Ok Tela rockjunquie , you just blew me away with this one! It is absolutely stunning. Can I ask what you are not remembering how to do? I don't remember where the two wires came from that the added bail hooks onto. Other than the bail, all wires are from the original bundle. Those wires weren't added, but I can't tell where they came from.

I'm still staring at this. It looks like the wire the bail is attached to is either a square, but more likely hammered to flatten it a little on the curve. It looks like you used the second wire from the front from looking at the binding wires on the top left. Each wire criscrossed where the flower is attached? What I can't figure out is where the rest of the wires went up there. LOL!
