Pilula Jula and Pi Rocks on Ruby Lane Designer Studio Jewelry and Charm Bracelets Handcrafted with Sterling Silver, Semi Precious Stones and Vintage Charms
heddyjack I don't care for the typical wire wrapped jewelry that is on the market and I don't think of myself as a typical wire wrap designer. I think of my designs as artistic or artisan jewelry. I approach each piece as a mixed media sculpture: a bringing together of pieces to form an extraordinary piece of handcrafted jewelry. Bead and wire and a lot of patience - that is how I work. I enjoy wire wrapping and the jewelry I design, I stive to be unique but stylish with a little funque thrown in...I hope that my wire jewelry is an example of that goal.
