I have been making my wire jewellery for about a year now and am self taught and still learning.
I am totally hooked on wire and love they way you can mold it into different shapes. I have also tried my hand at making wire animals, so I have included a photo of one.
I love this site, it has so many helpful tips about the business side to making jewellery that I really appreciate. I purchased your E-Book on Blogging and am about to embark on writing my own Blog, I just need a dose of courage to get started!
I have problems with the Tech Talk and linking everything together, does anyone have the same problems? All help gratefully received.

Margaret, I so agree – part of the addictive fun of wireworking is the ability to make it into nearly any shape you can imagine! Your pieces here are wonderful examples of that. It’s hard to choose a favorite – but I think I’d say it’s the seahorse with baby.
Thank you for your kind words about JMJ – and don’t wait to start blogging. Just start by posting some photos of your work and tell about them. Then you’re on a roll and can use the topic suggestions in my Jewelry Blogging book to keep you going!
Thank you Rena for your words of encouragement it means a lot, I will start my blog to-day and see where it takes me, and thank you for the opportunity to show case some of my work.
Regards
Margaret
Fabulous work! Very mature and distinctive for somebody who’s only been doing it a short time.
I really love your design. The good thing about being self taught sometimes is that your mind is free to explore!! I especially love what you did with the clasp on the heart necklace.

Your wire work is stunning! I would have thought you were doing it for years. 🙂 The seahorse with the baby is so sweet. Enjoy blogging! It is a fun way to journal what you are doing.
WOW!!-Woman you have finally created something I’d like to copy-AS IS! and I hope you don’t mind if I do. As the Director of River Region Animal Rescue I’ve got more design idea’s in my head than finished for Fundraising. Your style is so perfect…love to see more of your work. Our non-profit, all Volunteer Rescue is located on the outskirts of the Greater New Orleans Area and we target low-income area’s where the Animals need the most help. Can’t wait for your Blog! As Val said “I would have thought you were doing this for years. Love the Seahorse but the Heart is my favorite – so far!
Great wire work, Margaret! This is excellent wire work for someone who hasn’t been doing it for very long.
Thank you all so very much for your lovely comments, I really appreciate them all. If it wasn’t for sites like Rena’s I would not have learnt so much, in such a short time, I read all the tips here and practise regularly on copper wire before I commit to sterling, but also love how copper wire kind of glows.
And to Ellen I would be very happy to donate one of my canvas’s for you to raffle off if it would be helpful, just contact me on my facebook page.
