Ethnic Ring - Mine for the keeping

Ethnic Ring No. 2
Not satisfied with the first ethnic ring (previous entry), I made another one here. This time its smaller and suit my finger nicely. Still there is a small mistake made on the two center wire coils. They are way too short. Miscalculation on my part. They lie too flat making the ring looking rather flat top.
This time around I managed to complete the ring in under 3 hours. Am thinking of a third one already -- more in trying to improve the two center wire coils.

Wire Wrap Ethnic Ring Ala Iza
Sore thumb, sweat and a wee bit of blood is the result of this ring. I finally finished this wire wrap ethnic ring based on Iza's tutorial. She is just so talented and I am always in awe of her creations. Her tutorial makes everything looked so simple but it is actually not that simple especially when I am working with stainless steel wire. Got my thumb poked by the sharp end of the wire while working on it. This is actually not the first time I injured myself with wire. There were worst injuries than this but this one I managed to take a snap shot of.
I spent about 3 to 4 hours on this ring. It is a bit too chunky and big for my finger but I love it. I am halfway modifying her instructions and measurements as I want to create a smaller ring that suit my finger better.

Some Earrings for Xmas
Believe me I tried to make as much pretties as I could today (still on leave) but the boys just don't let me. If I am around the house, they only want me to bath them, put on their clothes, pass them their bottles, feed them, etc! etc! Headache! headache! Wonder if other mom faces the same situations?
So, I only managed these three pairs of earrings today. My favorite are the two wire wrapped heart earrings. One set is larger than the other. The small one is rather cute looking. The other two pairs (far right) were made with the coming Christmas in mind - Green and Red is the color of Xmas, right? I would like to make a pair of small Xmas tree earring. Mmmmm!....looks like I am working late tonight. I think I better get started now. Will show the results tomorrow.
