I love all things hand~made and crafty, remember that!!! I went to a jewelry class last night at Craft Crossing for the soul purpose ~ to learn how to wire wrap stones, or in my case~vintage chandelier crystals!! The class was taught by the fabulous Jyl !!!
I used 18GA silver wire and began by using the technique we were shown~kind of tricky at first, getting the wire to behave, but so much fun!!! I have some other crystals that are different shapes and want to try to wire wrap those! Also the key is hand cast by Jyl from vintage keys that belonged to her grandmother, that she played with as a child~I love the story!!! Very enjoyable evening except for the headache that went to the class with me***ugh****
I'm still running the giveaway on the previous post~just leave a comment on this or that one and be a follower and you will have a chance to win the "crafty" goodies... I keep adding to the envelope ~ I will wait a few more days, so let your friends know and tell me who you sent and I will add your name twice.Thanks for stopping by on your busy weekend and have a wonderful day!!!
