I decided lately that I have fallen in love with the look of wire wrapped pieces of jewelry. I have not really made much wire-wrapped jewelry in the past, and I would absolutely love to get more experience in making it! Some wire-wrapped jewelry can be so inspiring and beautiful, and have a look that is extremely unique. So I decided the other day to create this ongoing feature (for as long as I decide to keep it up) called Wire Wrapped Wednesday where I will either showcase wire wrapped jewelry that inspires me, or wire wrapped pieces that I have created myself. This week, I am showcasing a piece that I have attempted to create myself, that is to say, it's not perfect, but hey, like I said I don't really have experience with this, and want to get more, and what better way than to just start practicing?? Hopefully with the continued occurrence of this weekly feature, I can improve my wire-wrapping skills! I would also in the near future like to get a jig to play with wire on. In some of the random jewelry making items my aunt gave me, I obtained some bits and pieces that go with a jig, but I did not get the actual jig board, which is of course the most important part. I will probably buy myself one once I get a job.....haha. (I really need some income before I start buying random things). Hopefully that will come soon. But here is my piece, hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it!
Ooo, I really like it.
