Mojo Challenge Week 4: Findings

I want to thank Heather Powers of  Humblebeads for hosting this challenge. Heather needed to take a break from the weekly challenge due to other demands on her time and I am grateful for that - I have been working on clasps, trying to get something "different" - and that is a real challenge with so many creative people out there doing wire work. 

I started with these ear wires ---- I have been trying to perfect my spiral (not there yet) and these wires seemed like a good cross between posts and wires........

hand made earwires
Then, onto clasps ........ I want clasps, hooks, whatever ---- that are larger and heavier than some --- after over 40 some attempts I came up with three I like - I will be taking these further. Hope to even put them in a necklace one day.





Thanks for stopping by.......  Enjoy!
