Huge Orange Murano Glass Necklace  email this discussion to a friend?

I made this necklace using a huge 40mm Orange fire Murano glass focal bead. I used craft wire which is very soft and pliable to make it into a pendant then added it to the lovely goldtone chain. This is the first piece I have done in a while. I was so busy over the holidays I just did not have time to create. Please share any new pieces you have done.

Very interesting! I see that you have a shop on etsy.com. What do you think of selling on etsy? Has it been easy for you? I'm a crafter and just purchased a digital camera for the sole purpose of selling my stuff on there. Is it a hassle or something fairly simple to get into?

I like Etsy, it has its goods and bads. It is a lot cheaper than Ebay, though sales are kind of slow there. It is hard because there are all crafters on there. So making your product special, and stand out can be difficult. I have had 7 sales, since I think July, so I guess I can not complain.

That is a beautiful creation! The pendant is very unique and I love the bold orange color. Beautifully done...it's going to make someone very happy, if you are going to sell it.
I've been working on a bunch of sea glass pendants recently. Just simple wire wrapping, though I'd like to get a bit more involved in wrapping, but I still need to work on my technique.
For not having created much recently, you certainly got back into the swing of it with your wonderful necklace... it really is awesome!

I have been working on a few more projects. I still feel like a major novice at wire wrapping.

I know what you mean! I joined a sea glass collector's group and most of the members make sea glass jewelry and some of the wire wrapping is like WOW!, compared to my very basic wraps. (they also charge way more than I do for my jewelry...and make quite a few sales too!)
I have a long way to go before I'm wrapping up to their level.

I have watched tutorials for real fancy wire wrapping. They make it look so easy. When I try I feel like I have 50 fingers, none that do what they are supposed to.
