Labor of Love

Just yesterday I took a wire wrapping class to advance my jewelry design to the next level. Different from traditional jewelry assembly, this is proving to be a bit hard on my hands. The project I started is a bracelet using some of the techniques I learned such as making headpins with an etruscan link and rosary turns. I found some great beads that are blue and purple in color depending on which way the light hits them. They are gorgeous and make me think of my cousin Teresa. Once completed this labor of love is for her.
