First Wire Wrap
« on: April 30, 2016, 02:28:55 PM »

This is my first attempt at this art form. Cabochon was gifted, so I don't know its provenance.
I look forward to getting better at this.

Looks like you are well on your way.  Now get a part time job so you can buy  a set of Wubber pliers, many mandrels and lots and lots of silver wire.   :hello2:

Good job keep it  up.

Looks good to me!  Looks a heck of a lot better than my first wire wrap!   :icon_sunny:
I second the motion to grab yourself some more wire and tools and just keep wrapping.  The more wraps you make, the more you hone your skills and acquire new ones.  :thumbsup:

Silver is nice, but copper is less expensive and is easier to work with. Nice wrap.

Great start! As you keep it up you'll figure out your style. Don't be afraid to experiment.
