Freehand wire bracelet

   I really like working with wire. Sometimes I like to work freehand to see what I can come up with.

Some crafty components from the comfort of my couch

   I don’t have any completed craft projects to show you today. I do, however, have some crafty odds and ends to show you.

Handmade wire bracelet and rings

   It should come as no surprise that I really like making wire-wrapped cuff bracelets. 

With this ring...I have more than I can wear at one time

   I have made more wire rings than I have fingers and toes. 

Wire jig bracelet

   It had been a while since I used my wire jig to make anything. So I decided to use it to make a bracelet.

Clearance beads for a wire-wrapped cuff

   On Monday I showcased a bracelet and earrings I made from beads I found on clearance. Today’s post features more of those clearance beads. 

A colorful game day post

   It is once again game day! And as I have done since the college football season started I have made game day jewelry. 

Wire earrings with a twist

   I began this blogging adventure to share my challenges and successes in crafting. I feel like today’s post contains a little of both. 

The last color of the rainbow – violet!

   This is my last ROY G. BIV post. I’ve made it through the colors of the rainbow. Today’s color is violet. 

I'm in the home stretch of ROY G. BIV! Today is blue!

   Am I blue? No, just on the last stretch of blogging about my handmade jewelry in the colors of the rainbow. 

ROY G. BIV: It's not easy being green!

   Green is my favorite color in the rainbow of colors known as ROY G. BIV. 

A pink post! October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

   Pink really isn’t one of my favorite colors. There isn’t much pink in my wardrobe and I have very little in the way of pink beads and jewelry accessories in the Creative Cave. 

Wire jig cuff bracelets...it's a wonder I'm not wrapped in wire!

   It should come as no surprise to any of my readers that I enjoy working with wire. I’ve used wire to wrap bracelets, rings and pendants. 

A button and a wire-wrapped cuff bracelet

   I haven’t used buttons much in my crafting, but I have plenty of them. My hope has been that one of these days I would make something with them. 

Battle of the orange this afternoon

   It sure doesn’t seem like a week since I last posted a football-themed entry on my blog. But it was. Today is another college football Saturday! 

Hooked on wire rings

   I have some more handmade rings to show you. I finally studied a tutorial and as you will see, I became hooked on making them. 

Going wire wrap crazy with rings

   Wow! Another month has come and gone. Welcome October! Perhaps I should get crafty and work on some Halloween and Thanksgiving items. For right now, however, I want to share my new obsession…handmade rings. 

It's still college football season...so here ya go!

   It’s a college football Saturday and the Clemson Tigers are playing today. So by now it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the subject of today’s post is football. 

Another experiment with the wire jig: Earrings

   I wanted to play some more with my wire jig, but I wasn’t sure what I would make. I put all of the parts out in front of me, grabbed some wire and decided to see what I could do. 

Matching bracelet and earrings...with help from the wire jig

   I used yet another design that came with the wire jig to make a bracelet and matching earrings.
