OMG, Deb!!! That is BEAUTIFUL!!! 😍🤩 My favorite piece of jewelry is a handmade, wire twisted necklace. The pendant is heart shapes with the tree in the middle with "stones" on the branches. 

I love it 

Gorgeous.  

The tree of life, I make those too. I usually do them as dream catchers that go on your rear view mirror, but I like the pendants too  

Thanks guys! To me the trees made on stone, dead wood represents the resiliency of life, of being able to survive in the most inhospitable environment and not only to survive, but to thrive. It keeps me centered.  

Very nice! 

Beautiful frame of mind, Deb! I SO would be a regular customer if I were near by! Maybe I could order something from you in the future. Not like shipping it would be much of a hassle for you. Just don't use that chocolate scented tape! 😅 

LOLOL, I actually have an etsy store that is currently empty, my photo taking skills are terrible and my pictures don't do my work the justice they deserve. I prefer selling in person, so I can share the story behind the creation, they all have a story. Thank you Kenna. My hubby grumbles that I should be splashing them all over the internet, but for me, it's too impersonal. I also won't go through a self checkout because of that very thing, I need the human in front of me, the social interaction both buying and selling! 

Cool craft! 

Very nice. I used to do this.  

Thanks Erika! @Morticia, it's very soothing to the soul to sit there and twist the wire and watch it turn into something that mirrors what you are feeling inside. 

Love this! So super creative! You sell them? Reminds me of a site I have ordered gifts from “Love catchers”, she does personalized wire gifts. This is super unique! 

@Sternfan I sell them one time a year, at our City's Annual Christmas parade. I dislike selling my art online, it requires seeing someone face to face to tell the story behind it. I make stuff all year then go set up with unique one of a kind gifts for just about anyone.  

That’s cute what is it I like it 

That’s absolutely awesome good for you!!💜 

my booth is always busy, beside the tree art, I also do bottle art, wire jewelry, dream catchers, soap, incense, candles lotions and potions with essential oils. Kind of a BoHo vibe. I use my bottle art to make incense burners, I macramé hangers for them so you can hang them in your house and not have to worry about fire danger or pets knocking them over.  

Back when I was here in 2014-2016, I was just making soap, my repertoire has expanded along with my waistline but it fills a place deep inside me with happiness to make it. I think I am allowing my inner child to express herself! I play with clay, paints, resin, yarn, feathers, leather, copper, etc. My shed always looks like a bomb went off in it! 

@Butterflygirl it's a wire tree sculpture made from a hollow log with a copper wire tree attached to it, and some stones and moss added to fill out the feel of nature and life and survival. 

I usually have one or two items sitting around in my Post Office just for conversation pieces, my regular customers there like to know what all I'm working on. They are a kind of support group for my creativity. We have a lot of crafty folks in town and we all discuss projects both finished and the ones we are planning. 

very cool.
