I loved it! I have tried a single double coil but it just wasn't strong enough. THIS will look SO much better. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have an unrelated question... could not find on here. I just (almost) finished a steampunk necklace... I put ribbon through some chain for the end pieces and they are attached fine to the center attraction, but I am having a little trouble with the loose ends near the closure.. does anyone have ideas about this. When I attached to front, I used the little bell caps and wrapped wire around the ribbon and wire wrapped to the center... thank you!

Awesome idea, Jean. Why can't I ever come up with these ideas? So simple, yet so beautiful. Another Himerun, Mrs. Campbell! Thank you for sharing!

Oh !!! I love it....Have been looking for a new way to make a Bail....Hee Haw!!

Lots of times I will drill a hole for my Bail if I feel comfortable in the drilling part, I do wire wrap quite a few without holes and that is a really neat Bail...Sometimes I will take three pieces of 20g wire and solcer them together and then wrap around the stone using the top longer piece to wrap a circle... Other times I just use a free form style and let the wire lead the way.....

Thank you, thank you, thank you Jean for this great idea!! I have been making these spirals for weeks to hang on my pieces for an added bit of whimsy, but would never have thought of doing this and I have a box FULL of large stones that I have found here and there that have no holes and like you said, was afraid to try and drill them because of breakage. And trying to find bails in our area, especially large ones is very difficult. This is perfect!! Have my first big show coming up next month and this is just in time for me to get some more pieces made that otherwise would have just set on my shelves. Thanks again!!!
