[url]Wire and beads  100_1310[/url]

Here is my first attempt at wire wrapping, these stone are of sentimental value to a friend of my husbands, they come from New Zealand and he is giving them to his siblings as Christmas prezzies.
They come from a beach that they all used to play on when they were children (he is now 50). His family moved out there in the 70s, on one of those move to New Zealand for £10.00! can you believe that?

The beads are my first attempt at beading in, oooh, back last year, before I was ill. I've got a long way to go, but soo enjoying it.
hope you all had a good weekend

Your beads are fantastic Debs. You haven't lost your touch then?
And the stones are just such a lovely idea. I love them.

on a serious note thank you ladies, your comments are inspirational. Very Happy
