Wire Wrapped Link- In Rust

I did a post a few days ago about a Bird's Nest that I made...I think I even made the comment that I really didn't need to learn another art form at this point...

Didn't I say that?

Well, I suppose that I am just not that strong...

I've stumbled upon this little thing called
"wire wrapping"
that totally has me in its grip...

I've fallen and fallen hard my friends -
I'd like to blame it on this lady, oh and her too...
But, hey, I was in therapy for years so I can be totally honest here and claim my own weaknesses (claim the blame...sorry, couldn't help it!)...
It is my fault.
I knew that I should have never touched that second piece of wire...
I should have just left that torn strip of rusty fabric on the table...
And definitely left the teeny tiny seed beads in their drawer...

But - I didn't.
And here is what has become of all of it...
in one nice little package...

Oh, the possibilities that I see...

Very cool wire wrapped rusted fabric. It's not giving in to something, it's expanding your creativity.
