I had a stunning piece of sea glass I wanted to wrap but unfortunately it had a slight crack that went down quite a ways and I needed to hide it.
Thank you so much for your briolette wrap tutorial.
I drilled a hole (front to back) at the base of the crack and was looking for a way of wrapping it that would not only hide the crack, but that was also very simple and clean cut (I didn’t want a messy wrap.)
Then I saw your tutorial and I had never thought of wrapping from the top to the bottom!
I also like the spiral idea.
Thanks again,
Christine Blanchet
I love seeing how your briolette wrap turned out here, Christine – beautiful! You did such a great job of covering the crack that nobody will ever know it’s there. And the spiral adds the impression of a nautilus seashell.
Love the way you covered up the crack. Isn’t it funny how someone else’s idea morphs into clearing up a problem you may have with your project?!
Thanks for sharing!
Your wrapping and pendant are beautiful and impeccably done. I love how you’ve concealed the imperfection in the sea glass!
Beautiful! Excellent wrap on your piece.
Lovely pendant Christine – may I ask how you drilled the sea glass
I just had to say that is the neatest wrap job I’ve ever seen! It takes alot of practice & patience to wrap that well. I love your creative way to hide the crack. Beautiful job!
Great inspiration for the rest of us.
