    Oh you are just way too sweet, Landon! I tried to make jewlery one time it looked like a three year old played with wire and beads...NOT pretty to say the least! I'll leave this department up to you and live vicariously through you.

    It bent really easily which was probably part of my problem, I wanted to make the kind where the wire bend around in those pretty little squiggles and waves and then you add a bead or two?... Well I didn't have the correct peg board to wrap the wire around to make the little squiggles, nor did I have the correct tools, which would have helped matters as well. My girlfriend makes these beutiful pieces and she has all these nifty tools, and lighted magnifier, and she just makes it look so easy...but I know better! You and her both, have lots of talent in those hands!!

    Well, BarbySue, honey no wonder you couldn't make it! You didn't have the right tools or anyone to guide you! Sounds like you wanted to make a pendant? I am no good at the wire wrapping too. I haven't taken the time to figure it out. Thank you for saying that I have talent. I so love being creative and am very grateful that I am. But, I believe that there are tons of creative people out there, they just need someone to take them by the hand and guide them. I believe that you have more talents than you realize you do!

    OMG, Landon, if you saw what I did to that poor wire and beads, you would have shook your head and told me in that nice, sweet way of yours to give it up, and stick with crocheting. But I'm ok with that. That's why there are people like you who make such wonderful pieces so I can buy them! hehehe
