Week 28-Another Copper Bangle




Another copper bangle with lots of coiled wire and a saucer shaped bead that I picked up at the G&LW Show. I can't wait for the next one in October! In spite of my vow to use what I have, there's nothing like some new supplies to kick your muse into gear.

Week 28- Druzy and Amethyst Pendant



Ava's recent postings motivated me to dig out this little piece of druzy that I've had for years. The stone is 15mm X 20mm and it changes color from purple to peacock depending on the viewing angle. I usually wrap with dead soft wire but since I knew I couldn't tumble this I used 22 gauge square half hard instead. I find it frustrating to shape half hard wire around small pieces so I used one of Rick's Bezelforms which helped a lot in getting the the top and bottom joins even. The dangles are amethyst.
