1 A rainbow of cascade earrings made with 14k gold-filled chain and Swarovski bicones. L-R: Crystal, Rose, Ruby, Amethyst, Tanzanite AB 2x, Montana, Sapphire, Blue Zircon, Emerald, Erinite AB.
2 This fun cuff bracelet incorporates freshwater pearls, garnets, pink and clear quartz, and sterling silver.
3 My first wire-wrapped piece, an aventurine stone set in copper wire. I worked out the design as I went along. My mom claimed this as her Christmas present. "If your mom hadn't claimed..." View Comments...
4 This silver-wrapped blue tiger eye stone was a gift for my aunt.
5 After I got Mark Lareau's book All Wired Up, I busted out my new swirl-making prowess with these malachite earrings.
6 Another silver swirl, this time accenting a lapis lazuli bead (which looks an awful lot like a gumball to me).
7 I expanded the swirl concept to create this pendant, which frames a sapphire Swarovski crystal drop.
8 The other side of the pendant has an extra swirl, just in case one isn't enough.
9 Step one: Discover how to make eighth notes out of copper wire. Step two: Make a whole bunch of them. Step three: Try to figure out what to do with fun music chain.
10 Jumbles of eighth notes make fun silver earrings. Does this count as MusicMaille?
11 These treble clefs are worked in copper (the prototype) and sterling silver. They'll probably become pendants or earrings.
12 A heart made with 14k rose gold-filled wire. I'm not sure what it's going to be when it grows up, but it sure is pretty.
13 This cloisonne-style bead is made with black polymer clay, sterling silver wire, and colorful mica powders. It's based on a technique developed by Eugena Topina.
14 The other side of the round cloisonne bead.
15 A heart-shaped cloisonne bead.
16 The other side of the heart-shaped bead, featuring a flat-back Swarovski crystal.
17 I call this necklace Ruby Cascade. It features ruby and clear Swarovski crystals connected by sterling silver cable chain. My wrapped-loop skills got a workout with this necklace.
18 Romantic cascade earrings made with heart beads I got in Florence, Italy.
