Cotopaxi Chickie Sue says:Debra, this is just so gorgeous! Love those purples and blues with the copper – and your wire work is just so fun! Did you just press the spirals into the square pearls, or did you have to apply a little glue?
On Oct 03, 2009 at 5:24 am #
Leigh D says:Oh boy – this is amazing – I know your fingers were hurting after all the spirals and loops!
On Oct 03, 2009 at 3:43 pm #
ChickyD aka Debra says:Thank you, Cotopaxi & Leigh!
Leigh, I just make a spiral-end head pin, put the bead on and press the spiral up against the bead. Very simple.

ChickyD aka Debra says:Meant to answer Cotopaxi Sue’s question and addressed it to Leigh. Sorry, girls!
