Double Celtic Cross & Scrolls Earrings

“Can I get a refund on a tutorial I purchase from you?”
WRAPTURE tutorials are offered as fee-based, instant download documents. Documents purchased through WRAPTURE’s website are deemed immediately delivered, and non-returnable or refundable.
Unfortunately, because of the nature of electronic products, it is impossible to definitively confirm that a file has been deleted from a user’s computer and that any back up files and print copies have been destroyed. Therefore, refunds are not available or offered on any WRAPTURE tutorials.
If you have had problems with your purchase, please contact me, and I’ll do my best to work with you on a resolution.
I received an email today asking for clarification on the legal disclaimer on my tutorials. The sender wanted to know if she could resell items made from the tutorial.
The answer is a YES, but please don’t mass produce them! I would appreciate if design credit is acknowledged :-). I would also appreciate acknowledgment if you create derivative pieces from the tutorial.

Inspiration comes from the strangest places! This modern-looking pair of earrings was inspired by an Art Deco-era light standard I spied while driving along the Queen Elizabeth Way, in Toronto – and hence the name, QEW! I can’t remember exactly where it was – somewhere between High Park and the Humber Hump – only a quick glimpse, but it was enough!

Happy New Year!
Does anyone besides me occasionally do a search for their own name on Google? (C’mon… admit it…LOL)
Actually, I was doing it to check how many sites are linking to mine. In the process I stumbled across a link to my Beaded Channel Ring tutorial, published in Lark Books’ Contemporary Bead and Wire Jewelry. So, give it a try!
After a quick trip to Europe, the designing bug has finally caught me again, and I’ve started working on two new tutorials! Both of these will be Very Easy projects and will be offered for free. Stay tuned!
I will not be accessing the computer from November 14-19, 2007, so if you have any download problems during that time, please just send me an email, and I’ll get back to you on November 20.
Thank you!

This tutorial was voted “Best Advanced Tutorial” &”Favourite Piece” by the Members of the International Guild of Wire Jewelry Artists, Earring Tutorials Contest 2007. IGWJA decided to put it into the advanced category for the purposes of the contest, but in my opinion, this is an easy project.

Micki Ring
This bold, geometric design was inspired by the work of Max Froehlich (1908-1997), a Swiss-born goldsmith who was part of the “Modern” school of jewellery design. With one change, it is possible to make two variations of this ring! In heavier gauges, it makes an appealing men’s ring! The ring is named after Micki Bleily of Parma, ID, for whom it was made as a Secret Santa gift in 2002.
Project instructions contain both variations – 11 pages, 52 photos, 43 steps, plus design notes
