Planting Trees
by Judy Ellis
Every once in a while our subscribers send pictures of their projects. This past week, Stephanie sent us photos of what she has been creating with wire and geodes that she purchased from WireJewerly.com. I loved what she was doing with it and asked her to share a few additional examples. I thought you'd enjoy them as well - she calls it " Planting Trees"

A word from Stephanie:

My name is Stephanie Traugh. I've been wire wrapping for 4 years now. I find wire wrapping soothing. I get lost in my creations and a part of me goes into everything I make. I'm self-taught so I really don't have a method. I just start twisting and let the art form itself. I design jewelry ear cuffs, pendants, rings and tree sculptures.
A few examples of Stephanie's work:

Jewelry: I use 16-28 gauge Silver filled, Sterling Silver, Rose and Yellow Gold filled wire and semi precious stones for my jewelry.
