Coppery Delights - Another Etsy Treasury

Last night I was able to create another Etsy Treasury...this one is filled with Coppery Delights! I was able to include fellow blogger, Sandy Cahill Johnson's piece..."I'm All Mixed Up".

I'm thinking about using copper for my wire wrapping, in addition to Argentium Silver and Gold Filled wire. Time to place an order with Rio Grande!

Still waiting for the kiln to cool so I can take a look at my tack fuse experiment. Hope to be able to post results later today.

What a Wonderful Surprise

This morning I received a note from Sandy Cahill Johnson that she has featured one of my wire wrapped pendants, "All that Glitters", upper left top row of the picture, in her treasury aptly named "It's a Wrap!". This is such a joy and honor for me to be featured with other wonderfully talented wire artists. Please take a moment to visit this treasury, and Sandy's Etsy Store SCJ Jewelry Design, and of course, Sandy's blog. She is a VERY talented wire artist / jewelry designer.
