I'm A Wrapper

Here's hoping everyone had a nice holiday. Ours was splendid. Fun, games and food with family and friends. I wore my new red, white and blue bracelet.  Lot's of compliments. 

I have been wrapping glass. Mostly with wire but I am attempting to use leather as well. The wire is easiest for me. The leather wants to stretch. I am going to finish a piece and wet the leather. Then dry it with a hair dryer on the highest setting. My thinking is it will shrink and stay put.
I think my next adventure may involve macrame. I have been working the pattern up in my brain.

Stay tuned...

  1. Macrame would be cool with some of the bigger stones. Or for bracelets with smaller stone placement. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

  2. Macrame would definitely be a plus! I never could get my fingers and mind around tying all those billions of knots! I really like what I've seen so far.
