First Wire Wrapping Necklace

I had this awful virus the past week. Runny STUFFED nose, sneezing, coughing...but the worst part was the headache. It just wouldn't go away! So now that I'm feeling somewhat human, I decided to try my hand at wire wrapping jewelry. I had a 5 minute lesson on how to do it about 3 months ago...can't say I did much with it after that. But I have so many beads for my art dolls and fabric pages that I just had to do SOMETHING!!!

So, here it is!!!

Not bad for a first timer.

Very cool, Sandee. Sounds like what you had was the flu. I'm glad you're feeling better. :) Love the banner on your blog.

Looks like a lot of work! I´ve been working in a beads/buttons/wool shop many years ago and had to learn some beading techniques, but it´s not my favourite thing to do ... Your necklace is great!

Hi Sandee! I love your wire-wrapped necklace! You did a great job on it. Glad to hear you're feeling more human. I've been sick too. Hurry up Spring! :)
