Here im sharing my wire & bead projects, learning as i go😀
This spider and spiders web i made for mum to go outside on her garden shed, the web is wrapped around a hanging basket bracket. (Ignore the loose threads on the spider thats so the drop can be adjusted, once mums happy i will wrap the ends in safely)

A different version Kitty Cat, this one is orange and chocolate wire
I made this dragonfly suncatcher for mums birthday. I first painted the chipboard dragonfly with imaginations craft starlight paints in red, orange & gold, it shimmers beautifully in the light. In a job lot of beads i bought on ebay to build up my collection there were 3 memory wire circles for necklaces, but ive used it as the base of my suncatcher. I first attached the dragonfly to the frame with wire and then got wrapping with red and gold wire and various beads in reds, oranges and golds. Its approx 5" in size.

This Cockerel i made for my brother, i added various beads on the ends of the tail and one large crystal prism in the middle. I used a large black bead for his eye. This one really was a labour of love!

and his head

The photo doesn't do this justice, photos taken way back in the dark of winter. Its blue and green dragonfly. In the end i changed the large crystal prism on the end for smaller dainty ones but of course forgot to take another photo before sending him to his new home.
*******
Guardian Angel in copper, bronze and gold tones. Rather large at approx 7" in length

Silver and white guardian angel.

Rustic heart, red and gold version. Approx 4", ideal to hang in the window and catch the light
Red heart version
Silver and white heart. I got these amazing pearl beads which are mostly white but have a splash of colour, so you get this colourful effect using them.

Robin red breast. The wing is stood out proud and can be tweaked
This shows the colour a bit better.

Peacock feather. Green, blue & gold wires and beads.

This purple & silver dragonfly with purple, pink & blue beads was my 3rd attempt, i was very happy with it. About 6" in length.
******
This red and gold dragonfly was my second attempt, i was very happy with the barley twist tail, again i learnt how the wire reacted.
******
This blue rose was my first ever attempt with craft wire, so learnt alot from it but for a first time i was pretty pleased with it. There is a large blue bead at the roses centre.
Thank you for all stopping by. Emma
