My joy is cutting into a rock & finding a treasure underneath a seemingly ugly exterior. From there it's slicing it, then shaping & polishing it to a gorgeous cabochon. I love to wire wrap my cabochons & turn them into works of art, sometimes creating a pair of earrings & a necklace to match the wire wrapped pendant. I have done a little sewing, a little crocheting, even a little knitting but I didn't really get cranked up until I started playing with seed beads and then other beads, learning how to make necklaces & earrings. But when I started playing with some pretty stones & a kind lady gave me a quick wire wrapping lesson, it was all over with. I just had to get a tumbler & tumble my own. Then I was given a Diamond Pacific Genie for grinding & polishing cabochons. After that I just had to have a saw, then two saws & it hasn't stopped yet!!!!
