Where it All Started - Late 2009, Early 2010 Designs

These are my first relatively successful attempts at jewelry making. It was a long and tedious learning process, I almost gave up more than once, but after overcoming huge frustrations and shedding some tears, I persevered...

Here are my first works... As you can see, I experimented with different techniques, before settling on wire wrapping.
