Wire Wrapture! - NOT FOR SALE

I'm going nutsos over wire wrapping :)

Inspired by the Eni Oken tutorials, I decided to experiment and here is the end result.

This is supposed to be a pendant and when the sweetie saw it, he asked if it was some sort of exotic seahorse ... hahaha!

I guess it does look like some fantasy sea-creature if you squint and look at it from a certain angle :))

Such pieces look easy to do, but it takes a heck of a lot of wire and patience!

Oooooh!!! Will check out your blog asap. Wirework is soooooo much fun, isn't it?

I'd really like to learn metalworking and perhaps filigree too, but haven't found any classes yet, boo hoo!!

OMIGOSH, Lisa! I especially ADORE the rings you've made. They are sooooo cute!!!!!

And I can relate to the amount of work it must've taken to create one of them.
