BEADING IN JULY!

Today I finished up three necklaces.  The first is a rainbow of mauve, blue, and green in a multi-strand necklace, created with seed beads, tube beads, and more of Jeanne's lamp work beads set as the focal point of the necklace.  I love this piece - great for summer.    The second piece is also in mauves with stone chips and polished stone focals.  A heavier chunky look, great for the individual who likes the look of natural stone.  Great for summer or fall, I think.  And lastly, everyone likes a simple black necklace - this one is done with sterling silver accents and a simply wrapped black focal bead.   Which look appeals to you?  I'd love to hear from you and your thoughts on these pieces!  Thanks for looking.  Blessings.  Anita

THE FINISHED PRODUCTS...

These are the final photos of my wire-wraps, as necklaces. I hope to post them on Artfire after the holiday.

WIRE WRAPPED POLISHED STONE

I decided today is the day I tackle a wirewrap from a tutorial. I have done some free-form wraps, but nothing structured. The tutorial was one I found on the internet and although directions were vague in some areas, I think I got the gist of it. The polished stone is from my brother Bob's collection - it was his hobby. He is deceased now, but was very supportive of my jewelry making hobby, and I know he would appreciate that I chose one of his stones for this learning adventure.

Addendum: I decided to try another, again, one of Bob's polished stones. Isn't nature WONDERFUL in its design!
