i've been trying to figure out how to make those hip-sticky-outy things for ages.. okay, so i never researched or anything, because i wanted to figure it out on my own.. ha, but i looked at your pics and it kinda makes sense now!!

man, you've got skills!!! that dress looks freakin fantastic.

this may have to be my first swap.

let me know if this happens.

that bail was a pain in the neck, let me tell you...


basically you just weave in and out between 2 other wires, but HOLY COW its frustrating... wire likes to bend where ever you DONT want it to. sheesh!

WOW thats a lot of grandkids!!
but that is definitely the perfect gift for the grandma who has everything!!

after some good criticism, i decided to try out some more advanced wire wrapping. fortunately, i have a few different gagues of wire sitting around. its a little bit wonky, but i think i can get the hang of it!

how it hangs:


lying down:


what do you think?

**I used a tute from Remy Heath's website! Thanks for pointing me in that direction, talyra!!!

thanks for so much positive feedback!! =)
i am planning on making some stud earrings.. i actually just bought a pack of studs last week. i know how to make cute, hip, "young" ones, but i bought them with a more mature audience in mind, and i'm not sure what to do with them yet.
i know my stuff is simple, thats just the style that i prefer to wear myself, but getting a bit fancier couldn't hurt, could it? i'll definately loo k into it!
i also have a lot of gold earrings and bracelets on my... very popular craft website who's name i'm not allowed to mention because it would be advertising.

any more comments and criticisms would be GREATLY appreciated!!

so all of my friends and family swear that they love the jewelry i make.

i did one craft fair a couple months back, and i did decently, i guess, based on the turnout.

but i need some honest to goodness comments and criticisms.

what do you think of this stuff? i'm only posting 4 examples for now, hoping that whatever you say will help me out for the rest.









thanks in advance.

thanks guys! she recieved it last week, and it PERFECTLY matched her dress [which i didn't see till the day of prom, since we live in different states]. sisters must have some kind of mind bonding thing. weird.

made up of 100+ swarovski crystals and lots of antique brass wire. the earrings are hanging on some of the pins at the neck of my mannequin, Stella. My sister hasn't seen the finished results yet.. she just asked for a "big, sparkly" necklace. hopefully she likes it!

oh wow, thats really cool.
tho i have no idea what they're using.
personally, i think i'd just use sculpy so i could bake it when i got home and it wouldn't get messed up.
