Kingman turquoise cabochon

This is the cabochon I won from Cabbing rough's contest on Beading Arts Blog. It is a beautiful turquoise cab with rivers of golden color running through it. I did a simple wrap to follow the contour of the stone in copper wire.

Clover Key

The frame of the key was shaped into heart shaped clover leaves and then hammered for strength. It is wrapped with tiny green seed beads and a little swarovski crystal bead.  The shank is coiled and weaved with 26Ga copper wire. It turned out even larger then my red Key of Passion pendant. I got it finished just in time for Saint Patrick's Day.:)

More Keys

I came up with these cute keys for my little gran-daughters for Valentine's Day. I will add them to my key collection.
