    I did notice on some of the others (particularly the earrings) that there are some turned loops that could do with a little more work - this tends to show up even more in photos than for real, so it's all the more important to get it right if you're planning to sell online. It's really worth practicing getting perfect 'lollipop' rather than p shaped loops, and making sure that they close up to the other side of the wire. Same applies to wrapped loops, where it always looks a lot neater if all the wraps have the same number of turns and the ends are perfectly tucked in.

    Thanks for the tips George!!

Roll on Christmas is all I can say!!

    I see you have been doing some wire wrapping on your beads...I have been forcing myself to practice that too...I'm determined to get it right...It really takes some practice but it's worth doing...

    Is Mackenzie your daughter?? I bet she loved the Pink Rock Princess!!

    Oh! to the forum by the way!!!!
    Yes still lots to do but really want to get it right and want to have a collection ready to go when I go live!

    Mackenzie isn't my Daughter but a work collegue. It was a present for her birthday and she loved it!

    Wire wrapping - yes just one of these things that needs a wee bit of work, but we'll get there!!
