FREE-HAND WIRE WRAPPING!

A new design for me... I wanted to start A DIFFERENT project, something I don't usually do, and the cooper center bead was calling to me from my stash of a billion beads, and so that's where I started.  I grabbed some 24 gauge wire and began to wrap..., starting with the 4mm fire polish and building out from there.  I finished by adding a little paint to the Aztec figure so it would stand out a bit.  I think the pendant design goes oh so mahvelously with the African beads in the necklace.  It's just such a fun piece - nothing incredible or time consuming... just fun.  That's what beading is all about for me and I truly needed to just escape into my land of fun.  Done!   I'm working on some earrings, which I'll post once done.
