Wire Wrap Cross - How To

Handmade Beaded Rod, Wire Wrap Cross

This is one of my favourite crosses. Was used in Rosary for Mom (CH0359).

Though it looks a bit complex, it is not very hard to make at all.

Pearl and Crystal Rosary (CH0196)

This handmade crystal rosary is made with clear Swarovski crystals and Swarovski pearls. The cross is also handmade from the same clear Swarovski crystals with a genuine Swarovski headpin. The headpin is topped with a clear Swarovski crystal, giving a shiny sparkle at the bottom of the cross.

This rosary has a purity that is both soothing and cleansing.

Crystal Sun Catchers: Wirework Tree of Life (CH0232)

Wanting to make something for a friend?  Why not a suncatcher?  Why not crystal sun catchers? I recently visited a close friend whom I had not seen for a long while. He lives on a boat in Palm beach. A 70 foot ferro cement schooner he built virtually by himself over a span of 40 years.  I seldom get to see him but he has always been there for me when times were shaky. However, living as he does, there is not a lot of room of bric-a-brac and things that might take up too much space.  But sun catchers, and  gleaming, sparkling crystal sun catchers  - that would be ideal.

Sweet Audrey - Freeform Wire Wrapped Gemstone Pendant

There is not a lot of instructions I can give on this as it is freeform wire wrapping.  The thing I find that sets this off and makes it a bit more special is the use of square wires.  With a little bit of twist, they add a lovely extra piazazz to the piece.
