Check These Out

The other day I went over to a friend's house. She has been fiddling with wire wrapping. I asked her to show me since I'm really left-handed it's hard to turn the directions around in my mind. All the directions are written for righty's. 

Well anyway, she sat across the table from me and I could figure it out. 

I was happy with the way they turned out the top left one is a large stone bead. Two of them are from smashed pieces of my china. The other two are from flat stones made to be pendants. In fact they were in settings and I popped them out.

Not sure what I'm going to do with these. I might sell them but then again, I might just save them and give them as gifts. I'll likely put them on some beaded necklace, as I have tons of beads.

My Newest Antique Store Find

So here it is. Isn't it cool. It was outside of the antique store which means they wanted it to go on quick sale. I walked by it and then did a double take. It is a wire rooster and it has a circular section in it so you can put in a plant. I had just the one for it.

This plant is very old. I have have had it for 12 years or so now. My mother in law had given it to me. She was downsizing her plants. She has since passed away so every time I see it I think of her.

It looks great in my sunroom!
