My sister asked me to make her a ring for Christmas. Well, I have never made a wire wrap ring before and didn’t have a clue. YouTube to the rescue!
Next problem was that I didn’t have a ring mandrel to size it as Sis wanted a size 7. Well, I went on a search of the house and after trying various bottle caps, fingernail polishes, and perfumes, I hit on the lipstick tube. Most are fairly standard and my size 7 rings almost slipped over the inside.
So, with some trial and error, this is what I came up with…
Crinoid segment with blue bead on 20 gauge copper.
Shark tooth on 20 gauge copper with blue bead.
Small brachiopod hash plate with a 3 wire wrap and gold stones.
Crinoid segment with green stone on 20 gauge copper.
A 3 Fossil Ring Collection.
