Wire Woven Turquoise Cab

This one was very tough on my fingers. Yikes! The most difficult part was shaping the weaved wires to follow the shape of the cab and holding the shape together while making the bail. Imagine having to handle 14 wires on top there. I am reminding myself to use finer wires in my next project. For this one, I used 22ga and 26ga for weaving. Wire Woven Turquoise CabInspiration: Lisa Barth

    This is wonderful! A prime example of something I could do, but have no desire to do, so I get to ooh and aah over other people's work!
