I love the large necklaces especially the wavy wire, or is that gimp? How do you get that effect?

[Petal]

Ah, that's the sterling silver coiled wire, which I love using. I'll be booking myself onto some courses, though, as I'm keen to use PMC and perhaps stained glass.

I love the colours of the Amethyst/rose quartz one...doesn't the addition of the green crystals just make the colours sing!! And I would happily wear the Amazonite one...such a serene colour combination...and I too would like to know more about the 'wavy bits'!

Love that web. It looks great! I reckon it would look pretty good as a collar as well.

How long did it take you to make? I take forever with coiling.

Hi Guys - Aw, thanks ever so for your lovely comments about my 'stuff'. :o I really appreciate it - its great to have you guys saying my stuff is ok - it means a lot.

I do love using my 'coils' and find myself using them in a lot of my designs - its a really fine wire (that I buy in), which is wrapped round a wavy piece of thicker wire to produce the coil shape. uuuum - must get on and practice some wire wrapping, as I'd love to make some of my own, plus lots of other shapes and pretties !

How I make my stuff is that I just play around with things. I do terrible drawings that no-one else would ever understand. The cobweb came from a beautiful spiders web I saw one day whilst out walking - loved it and thought I'd got to give it a go with my beading bits. I never finished it as it didn't hang properly - so once I do, I'll post a piccie on my album if you like. I think it took me a couple of hours to do, but it was a while ago.

(I'm off to do some gardening and dig up a few veggies for dinner). Then I must must must make some more stuff.

Thanks guys :D
