Going small...

I love large jewelry so my wire wrapped sea shells end up being the bigger sort, but recently, I've begun listening to friends a little more when they say they'd like smaller pendants...
so I've been trying it out. My favorite I think is with 26 guage wire:wire wrapped coquina sea shell pendant And I used square wire here in the same method I would use to wrap a marble:
wire wrapped venus sea shell pendant And this on is 20 guage round wire in a rather simple design:

  1. So pretty! I bought some 20-guage wire. Now I just have to figure out how to use it.

  4. I guess this year I didn't want to leave my comfort zone and haven't signed up for any shows outside of the Raleigh/Durham area. I'll definitely start looking to branch out next year!
