The spiral delight series is one of the creative delights of my line.It has also made me bleed.
Here I was thinking that it was a great idea to make my jump rings stronger but hard tempered wire is like twisting a golf club into a bow. Ouch!
This is by far my best selling item, and it is also my most time consuming item so I love doing them in batches. Tonight I finished wrapping two 19" necklaces and one bracelet. A spiral delight heap, that will soon turn to this:
That is once all the soldering is done. I firmly believe that all my pieces should be finished to the best of their potential so I hand solder every single one of those little loops. Approximately 46-50 in each necklace. My Mom thinks I'm crazy and I probably am, but I will now be a little less crazy since my hard tempered wire lesson has been learned.
