I just have to share a few more pieces that I have wire wrapped with you all.... I am very pleased with myself and how I am learning how to do this,,, I always knew I wanted to work with wire more, but I guess this was just the right timeing Here is another one in my butterfly collection...  and the back...  and this necklace is made up of green turquoise, I have wire linked it with sterling silver wire, closed it with a sterling silver heart toggle clasp and interspaced it with peridot and clear quartz beads. This is the first all wire linked necklace I have ever done and I just LOVE it!    I think I am going to make a matching set of earrings for the necklace and also maybe a bracelet. The turquoise was a gift from my brother in that bag of goodies he bought for me at the flea market. I put these things in my Etsy shop if you are interested in purchasing them.... I am tempted to keep the necklace myself but I figured if I sold it I could feel my beading addic..... affinity and just buy more beads hehehe... I would love some honest feedback about the stuff and the pictures even,,, (((hugs))) |

Yea I didnt realize that turquoise was green either until I got these, the tag on the strand said turquoise, which it looked like turquoise to me except the color so I researched it and apparently the blue turquoise is blue because of the copper it contains and then green turquoise is green from the iron and chrome it contains... So this was a learning lesson for me too... I just love the beads,,, they are so cool |
