Wire Wrapped Black Rose

I am falling in love with this black steel wire. Tonight I made another Wire Wrapped Rose Ring with it. This is a 19ga wire. I am quite sure the ring would look better with thicker wire but 19ga is the thickest I have for now. A rose pendant is on the way :) The low cost tutorial on how to make this ring is available in my Etsy Shop - Rose! Rose! I Love You or here (check out the list on the far right sidebar), if you are interested.

End of holidays for my fingers - Busy weaving

I rested my fingers for about two weeks in conjunction with Chinese New Year! That's a long long time but I guess they deserve the rest as they have been working very hard the whole of last year :) Not that I am complaining. After the long rest, today they start to get busy again. Took out my pliers, wires and stones and made these 2 adjustable woven wire rings. All this while I thought I have ran out of this faceted black onyx but found three of them hidden away in one of the plastic containers. The last one left is for me...hehehe. Hope I can find the same kind of stone, shape and cut again as they are one of the favorite.

Wet! Wet! Chinese New Year

Today is the 4th day of Chinese New Year (CNY). The rain didn’t stop and it is still raining this morning. The sun only managed to show itself once or twice since the first day of CNY.

The last few days was spent indoors, visited few relatives and friends as well as the temples. Today, we would like to visit some more but we are still waiting for the rain to stop. Here are some pix taken the last few days.
