Metal and Wire work

I am completely and utterly fascinated by metal and wire. I love to work with it and I love the things you can make with it. I have been working a lot on my wire wrapping techniques and soldering techniques.

I recently made a bracelet called "Gypsy Dreams" and it is completely wire wrapped. I love the greens in the bracelet from the New Jade briolettes to the swarovski crystals. I also tried my hand at oxidizing with liver of sulfur. I think that I may have polished a bit too much off of this piece, but I love the aged look that it still carries.
