I finished a new gem in orange! Mami's colour!
Without flash...
Now illuminated!
It's even translucent enough to have a nice inner glow when not lit up by the camera flash:
I'm running low on gold-ish (probably brass) wire, but I shall buy more on my next off-day from Art Friend (The Beadery: Craft Products, #2485-212 , 15yrds, 20 gauge). In the mean time, I'll use my remaining galvanized iron wire to make some Grief Seeds.
