Practice...Practice...Practice!

I'm still not feeling up to par.  Sorry. I just felt like sitting in one place and working on jewelry. 

In case you are wondering about the irritated look on Widget's face, my jewelry supplies are scattered over the area where he usually naps in the morning...He is not a happy cat.

I am trying out some different combinations of pendants and making a few more.  You may have seen some of the pendants before. 

I did finish the bracelet on the right this morning.  I am not completely happy with the wire wrapping around the end of the Viking chains.  It's getting better, but a long ways from perfect.
Here are a couple of pieces with the only other carved antique bead. I don't know just how old he is,  but I like him.




The cut crystal on the left just doesn't photograph well.  I am not happy with the wire wrapping on that one either.  I will probably re do it at some point. 

The other one is a turquoise bear fetish that I put on top of another stone and wire wrapped.  Sorry. I don't know the stone.

This one is a bead that I got at Joanne's.  I have no idea what it is either.  I just thought it was pretty.

 Now you know how I am wasting my day....Hopefully, soon I will be back to minis...Today I am slacking.

See you tomorrow.

I can't even imagine where all my beads would end up if I set them down in front of my cat Gizzlefig. And I keep plexy glass on my dollhouse and room boxes cause he crawls in them if I don't. He is just certain that if it is that small, that it must be a house for him.
Smiles to you.

Linda, my cat has two houses of his own. If you go back to this entry, http://caseymini.blogspot.com/2013/08/housing-shortage.html You will see why he doesn't bother my houses. I made this one just for him. He sat inside most of the time that I was working on it.
