<deb> hi gale

<gale> Hi everyone.

<JANET> NOW I DO HAVE THREE DIFFERENT ORNAMENTS, BUT THE INSTRUCTION PAGE SHOWS THE STEP BY STEP FOR THE ICICLES ONE

deb bounces aliciag out of the classroom

JANET SMOOCHES ALICIA

<AliciaG> it was a platonic smooch

<JANET> http://www.weebewire.com/class/misc/tree/index.html

<gale> What's up?

<deb> uh huh

<AliciaG> plutonic?

<JANET> WE'RE MAKING WIRE ORNAMENTS!

<gale> thanks

<deb> making wire ornament

<JANET> PLUTONIC? LIKE OUTTA THIS WORLD!

<AliciaG> yeah!

JANET DOESN'T GET OUT MUCH

<gale> OOOHHHH-those are neat!!

<JANET> THESE ARE EASY!

<Cheri> texas is a planet in itself

<AliciaG> very nice janet

<Kaye> yes it is

<Kaye> at least we tend to think so

<JANET> AND WHILE I WOULD SURE RECOMMEND BUYING YOUR WIRE FROM ME<G> THESE CAN BE MADE WITH THE ARTISTIC WIRE YOU PROBABLY ALREADY OWN, OR THE CRAFT WIRE YOU CAN BUY AT THE WALMART OR CRAFT STORE

<gale> I have some junky wire I got at wal mart. I should probably get some good wire someday.

<JANET> (BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO BUY WIRE FROM ME AND WANT SOME RED AND GREEN COATED BRASS WIRE, IT'S THE SAME PRICE AS THE REGULAR 24 GAUGE BRASS, JUST SAY YOU WANT RED AND/OR GREEN)

<Kaye> cool

<JANET> BUT LEARN HOW TO MAKE STUFF WITH THE WALMART WIRE. I DO EVERY DESIGN THE FIRST TIME IN JUNKY WIRE

<Cheri> a christmas kit?

<JANET> OH YEAH! I CAN MAKE A CHRISTMAS KIT1

<TheQueen> PLEASE say XMAS! <G>

<Kaye> that sounds good

<Cheri> do you ave other colors besides red, green and the normal

<Kaye> i need to get some stuff from you tonight

<JANET> LET ME SEE... YOU NEED 2 FEET OF WIRE (I TWISTED THREE KINDS TOGETHER) FOR THE TREE, SO 6 FEET MIXED, PLUS 1 FOOT OF EACH COLOR FOR THE ICICLE, THAT'S 1 X 6 SO THAT'S 12 FEET MIXED PLUS 1 FOOT OF EACH FOR THE CAGE, THAT'S 3 FEET OKAY!

<rubberrabb> stupid computer

<JANET> SO LET'S SAY A CHRISTMAS KIT (BING YA, QUEEN?) IS 21 FEET OF 24 GAUGE BRASS WIRE, SEVEN FEET OF EACH BRASS, GREEN AND RED

<rubberrabb> I just came in to say goodnight--

<TheQueen> XMAS XMAS XMAS

<deb> nite rr

<TheQueen> night rr

<rubberrabb> and thanks to everyone

<gale> Night

<Kaye> night rr

<JANET> OH WHAT THE HEY, MAKE IT 27 FEET (NINE FEET EACH) AND CALL IT 2.50

<JANET> NO, CALL IT TWO BUCKS

<Kaye> for the whole kit

<JANET> IT WOULD BE $2.70 IF YOU ORDERED IT BY THE FOOT, YOU SHOULD SAVE SOME ORDERING A KIT

<Cheri> wow!

<JANET> $2 FOR 27 FEET OF MIXED 24 GAUGE BRASS WIRE

<Kaye> love it

<JANET> FOLKS. THIS IS ONLY 10 CENTS A FOOT ANYWAY

<gale> I can't pass that up. Dangit

<JANET> YOU COULD WIRE WRAP YOUR HOUSE FOR NOT MUCH MONEY.

<deb> lol

<Cheri> you know we love kits

<Kaye> i will be putting the kit on my list of things

<deb> oh that would make dh happy

<deb> lol

<Cheri> lol

<JANET> WELL AND WHILE YOU'RE THERE, YOU NEED TO BUY SOME WIRE IN STERLING SILVER. ONE OF THESE MADE IN SILVER WOULD MAKE A CHARMING PRESENT FOR SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO GIVE

<JANET> OR MAKE 'EM IN SILVER, PUT AN EARWIRE ON IT AND CALL IT YOUR HOLIDAY EARRINGS

<gale> How much wire does it take to make the icicles again?

<JANET> YOU CAN MAKE 'EM IN THE CHEAP BRASS COLORS, TOO

<Kaye> i need some silver for the beads i have been buying

<JANET> THE ICICLES TAKES THE MOST WIRE, YOU'RE GOING TO CUT 12" OF EACH COLOR YOU WANT, SIX OF THOSE PIECES

<deb> beaded wire icicles would be gorgeous

<JANET> PLUS A WRAPPING WIRE, THAT'S NOT A LOT OF WIRE, USE A SCRAP FROM SOMETHING ELSE

<gale> So with a kit I could make about 9 icicles. For 2$. Sounds good.

<JANET> YOU COULD!!

<JANET> SO CUT YOUR WIRES, AND LAY THEM IN THE PATTERN YOU WANT

<gale> What's the thing on the right side of the pic?

<gale> I like that one too.

<JANET> ENDLESS VARIATIONS HERE, AND IF YOU HAVE ARTISTIC WIRE, THAT COMES IN A TON OF DIFFERENT COLORS

<JANET> THAT'S THE CAGE?

<JANET> YOU CAN MAKE THAT ANY SIZE YOU WANT.

<gale> Okay-it looks like a cage. lol

<Cheri> how would you add beads for the icicles?

<JANET> (I DIDN'T EVEN MEASURE THAT ONE)

<JANET> I DO NOT SELL ARTISTIC WIRE, BUT TIME TO STAMP DOES i KNOW AND OTHER PEOPLE MAY TOO

<JANET> AND I THINK THESE ICICLES LOOK LIKE THE RIBBON CHRISTMAS CANDY WHEN THEY HAVE THE BLUE AND PURPLE AND OTHER COLORS IN THEM

<AliciaG> yes they do look like that ribbon candy

<JANET> CHERI, ON THE LAST WRAP WIRE, DON'T CUT OFF THE END AND PUT SOME BEADS ON THAT MAYBE?

<JANET> DEB WILL FIGURE IT OUT, SHE MAKES WAY COOL WIRE STUFF

<JANET> SO ANYWAYS, THESE YOU LAY OUT YOUR WIRES IN THE PATTERN YOU WANT AND MASKING TAPE TOWARDS THE TOP AND TOWARDS THE BOTTOM

<Cheri> I was looking at the tree thinking that it would look great with charms for the ornaments

<JANET> THIS IS SO THEY DON'T BUNCH UP WHEN YOU START TO WRAP THEM

<gale> That's a neat idea, Cheri

<JANET> OH THAT TREE, I MADE A BIG ONE! INSTEAD OF 26" OF WIRE I USED 40" OR SO OF BIG HEAVY 16 GAUGE COPPER WIRE

<JANET> AND THEN HUNG CRYSTALS OFF IT

<JANET> OKAY. BACK TO THE ICICLES

<Cheri> oh I bet that was gorgeous

<Cheri> (sorry)

<deb> lol

<JANET> AFTER YOU GET A WRAPPING WIRE ABOUT AN INCH FROM THE TOP AND AN INCH FROM THE BOTTOM AND PUT ONE AROUND IN THE MIDDLE TOO

<JANET> AND MAKE THAT FLAT...

<JANET> GET A STIPPLE BRUSH OR A GLUE PEN OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, A DOWEL ROD...

<JANET> WHATEVER YOUR LIL HANDS LAY ON FIRST

<JANET> AND WRAP IT AROUND THERE TO BEND THE WIRE INTO THE SPIRAL SHAPE

<JANET> IN MY SCAN YOU CAN SEE MY GLUE PEN

<JANET> OH!!

<JANET> I FORGOT

<JANET> THE TOP WRAPPING WIRE, DON'T CUT IT OFF. THE OTHER TWO, CUT THE WRAPPING WIRE FLUSH AND MASH IT DOWN FLAT WITH YOUR PLIERS...

<JANET> BUT ON THE TOP ONE DON'T CUT IT OFF, USE THE EXCESS TO MAKE THE HANGING HOOK

<Kaye> ok i am already lost

<Kaye> lay out wire and put tape on top and bottom and then?

<JANET> KAYE, YOU GOT YOUR BUNDLE OF WIRES TAPED FLAT, SO YOU WRAP A WIRE AROUND ABOUT THREE TIMES AROUND TOWARDS THE TOP AND TOWARDS THE BOTTOM AND TOWARDS THE MIDDLE

<gale> That keeps the wires together??

<JANET> SO ABOUT AN INCH FROM THE ENDS OF THE WIRE, TAKE ANOTHER SCRAP WIRE AND WIND THAT AROUND THE FLAT BUNDLE

<JANET> THEN SMASH THAT FLAT WITH YOUR PLIERS, IT DOES, IT KEEPS THE WIRES TOGETHER

<JANET> TRIM OFF THE EXCESS WIRE (EXCEPT ON THE TOP ONE) AND SMASH IT FLAT WITH YOUR PLIERS

<JANET> IT LOOKS ALMOST LIKE A STAPLE

<JANET> http://www.weebewire.com/class/misc/tree/index.html IS THE CLASS PAGE, LLB

<LLB> uh ... thanks

<gale> I can't see the wrap wires in the picture. Is that normal?

<JANET> NOW THE TOP ONE, YOU HAVE THE EXCESS WIRE THAT YOU WOULD CUT OFF BUT MAKE A HOOK OUT OF THE EXCESS TO HANG IT WITH

<JANET> UHHH GALE, I COMPLETELY HOSED UP MY SCAN OF THE WRAPS BEFORE I TWISTED IT AROUND THE GLUE PEN

<JANET> SO THE FIRST PICTURE DOESN'T HAVE THEM. THE SECOND PICTURE SHOWING THEM IS, UH, MISSING

<JANET> BUT IF YOU LOOK CLOSE ON THE GLUE PEN SCAN, YOU CAN SEE THE MIDDLE WRAP

<JANET> IT'S RIGHT ON THE SIDE UNDER THE D IN THE LETTERING ON THE PEN

<gale> Okay-I see that one.

<gale> So you leave that on there when it's all done?

<JANET> I REALLY MEANT TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE AND RESCAN THAT STEP ONLY I NEVER DID

<gale> I think you're just trying to blow our minds. LOL

<JANET> YES, YOU LEAVE ON THE WIRE WRAPPING BUT YOU TAKE OFF THE TAPE SOON AS YOU GET THE WIRE WRAPPING ON

<JANET> THERE'S NOTHING LIKE PLANNING AHEAD. I WAS MAKING THIS PAGE DURING FROGGIE'S SOCIAL HOUR

JANET HANGS HER PROCRASTINATING HEAD

<gale> I'm trying to do two things at once too. lol. I know it isn't easy.

<AliciaG> =)

<gale> I work at a board and I'm checking it right now.

<AliciaG> well folks, I'm fading, but thanks for the great ideas janet! Goodnight everybody!

<JANET> I WOULD ASK HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE CHECKING THEIR EMAIL WHILE THEY'RE SITTING IN CLASS, BUT I PROLLY DON'T WANT TO KNOW. LOL

<JANET> TAKE CARE, ALICIA

<gale> G'night

<JANET> YOU CAN MAKE THESE JUST LOOKING AT THEM, I KNOW YOU.

Lory raises her hand

<JANET> I KNEW IT, LORY!

<cak> ol

<deb> I'm not

<JANET> DEB IS POLISHING HER HALO

<JANET> LOL

<Cheri> not me

<deb> lol

<Lory> well i am cutting and pasting this too so i can try it in private

<Lory> so yall dont see me scream

<deb> lol

<TheQueen> i'd be paying more attention if deb had turned me onto that darn game on msn

<JANET> THAT MAKES SENSE, LORY. BUT TRY 'EM, THESE ARE FUN!

<cak> poor Lory

<JANET> NOW THE TREE?

<LLB> what game, queen?

<deb> lol

<JANET> IT IS TRI-COLORED WIRE

<Lory> i will when i find the wire

<deb> oh soo soooo sorry christina - NOT

<TheQueen> bejeweled

<JANET> ONLY IT REALLY ISN'T TRI-COLORED WIRE, IT IS THREE PIECES OF WIRE i'VE TWISTED TOGETHER

<JANET> THERE ARE SEVERAL EASY WAYS TO TWIST WIRE TOGETHER.

<JANET> IF IT IS A SHORT PIECE, THE TREE IS ABOUT 24" OF WIRE, YOU CAN PUT ONE END OF YOUR THREE WIRES IN A PIN VISE AND TWIST WITH YOUR PLIERS

<JANET> OR IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A LOT OF TREES AND A LOT OF CAGES AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE WITH TRI-COLORED WIRE?

<JANET> PUT ONE END OF THE WIRES IN YOUR RIGHT HAND, STRING THE WIRES AROUND THE LEG OF A CHAIR OR TABLE, THEN PUT ALL THE ENDS IN A DRILL.

<JANET> LIKE TWIST 'EM AROUND A DRILL BIT THAT HAS A HEAD

<cak> (you can load a cup hook in the drill too)

<JANET> (PUT A CLOTH OR SOMETHING BETWEEN THE WIRE AND THE CHAIR LEG, THOUGH, OR YOU'LL MAR YOUR CHAIR LEG BAD.)

<JANET> (DON'T ASK ME HOW I KNOW THAT)

<JANET> OH YEAH, A CUP HOOK IS A GREAT THING

<JANET> THEN WHIRRRR AND BINGO. WIRES ARE TWISTED

<JANET> DREMEL WORKS GREAT

<JANET> SO DOES A HAND DRILL

<gale> Sounds like fun

<JANET> OR IF SOMEONE, A KID OR A SPOUSE, IS BUGGING YOU?

<JANET> HAND 'EM THE WIRE AND TELL THEM TO TWIST IT ALL TOGETHER

<JANET> YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL 'EM ABOUT THE DRILL PART

<cak> lol

<JANET> KEEPS 'EM BUSY FOR HOURS. HEH HEH HE

<cak> 2 birds with one stone

<JANET> I ONLY DID THAT ONCE

<JANET> BUT I GOT ABOUT 20 FEET OF WIRE TWISTED TOGETHER FOR ME. :)

<cak> TB?

<JANET> YEP

<deb> lol

<JANET> SHE WAS ABOUT 10 AND WHINING SHE WAS BORED

<cak> (I figured she'd have enough energy to spare)

<JANET> I HANDED HER THREE SPOOLS OF ARTISTIC WIRE

<JANET> TOLD HER TO HAVE FUN

<JANET> TWIST 'EM

<JANET> AND I'D MAKE HER SOMETHING COOL WITH PART OF IT IF SHE DID

<JANET> TOOK HER AN HOUR

<JANET> AND IT WAS YEARS BEFORE SHE TOLD ME SHE WAS BORED AGAIN

JANET WINS!

<cak> (operant conditioning to the rescue)

<gale> LOL

<JANET> ORRRRRR

<JANET> YOU CAN USE THICKER WIRE

<JANET> I MADE A MOST BEAUTIFUL TREE WITH 20 GAUGE WIRE

<JANET> 20 GAUGE BRASS WIRE

<LLB> what gage were we starting with?( I was late)

<JANET> SO HOWEVER YOU DO IT, GET A SEMI-THICK PIECE OF WIRE (OR TWISTED LIGHT WIRES)

<JANET> IF YOU'RE TWISTING THREE COLORS TOGETHER, PROBABLY 24 GAUGE

<JANET> IF YOU JUST WANT TO MAKE IT WITH ONE WIRE, TRY 20 OR 18 GAUGE

<mel> Janet... can you get 14 gauge round sterling wire?

<JANET> I CAN, MEL!

<mel> i'll have to order some from you!!

<Kaye> how long are the wires and how many

<cak> Is the heavier wire hard to manipulate?

<JANET> $18 AN OZ AND THERE'S ABOUT FIVE FEET IN AN OZ

<cak> (I'm such a weeny)

<JANET> KAYE FOR THE TREE, 26" LONG JUST ONE PIECE (OR ONE PIECE OF TWISTED WIRE)

<gale> Ouch. Too spendy for me

<JANET> IT CAN BE, CAK. 14 GAUGE I'D PROBABLY GET DEAD SOFT WIRE

<cak> but the 20 is still on the easy side?

<JANET> OKAY, I WAS FIGURING UP HOW MUCH 14 GAUGE STERLING ROUND, WOULD BE $3.60 A FOOT

<JANET> 20 GAUGE I CAN BEND WITH MY FINGERS

<JANET> 20 GAUGE IS GOOD FOR THIS TREE

<Kaye> how many and how long are the icicles

<mel> thanks Janet, i'll send my order to you

<JANET> SO BEND AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE THE BOTTOM SAY 5" OF THE WIRE

<Kimberly> hey sweeties

<JANET> (KIMBERLY, CLASS PAGE IS AT http://www.weebewire.com/class/misc/tree/index.html AND WE'RE JUST STARTING THE TREE)

<Kaye> hey kimberly

<JANET> AND THEN FORGET THAT 5" OF WIRE UNTIL LATER, THAT'S OUR TREE BASE

<Kimberly> tanks everyone

<JANET> SO YOU'VE MADE AN L SHAPE WITH THIS WIRE

<JANET> 5" ON ONE LEG AND 20 OR SO ON THE OTHER

<JANET> NOW

<JANET> PUT YOUR PLIER TIPS RIGHT ON THAT L BEND

<JANET> AND HOLD THE L RIGHT WHERE IT BENDS

<JANET> WITH ME SO FAR?

<deb> yes

<gale> uh huh..

<JANET> AND WITH YOUR OTHER HAND, BEND THE 20" OR SO OF WIRE AROUND THE PLIER TIPS SO YOU'VE MADE A CIRCLE

<JANET> AND THEN JUST KEEP BENDING IT WITH YOUR FINGERS TO MAKE A COIL AROUND THE PLIER TIPS

<JANET> A FLAT COIL

<JANET> WITH THE PLIER TIPS (THAT ARE HOLDING THE BEND) IN THE CENTER OF THE COIL

<JANET> UNTIL YOU ARE OUT OF WIRE

<JANET> AND IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL IF IT DOESN'T STAY ROUND

<JANET> OR IF IT IS NOT EVEN

<JANET> SO WHAT

<JANET> A NICE FAT COIL AROUND THE TIPS IS OUR GOAL

<JANET> BUT IT IS NOT CRUTIAL TO HAVE IT BE PERFECT

<JANET> OKAY?

<JANET> WITH ME?

<gale> i think so

<JANET> CLASS PAGE AT http://www.weebewire.com/class/misc/tree/index.html ROSEM

<Lory> http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/spiralcage/index.html

<JANET> AND WE'RE ON THE TREE

<Lory> like that janet, with the coil and the pliers

<Rosem> k thx

<Lory> or am i totally off

<JANET> AND WE HAVE CUT 26" OF WIRE, BENT FIVE OR SO AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE, THEN HELD THE PLIERS ON THE BEND AND MADE A COIL AROUND THE TIP

<JANET> ALMOST, LORY, BUT DON'T MAKE THE COIL DOWN THE PLIERS, JUST KEEP MAKING IT UP EVEN WITH THE FIRST CIRCLE OF WIRE YOU MADE

<JANET> MORE LIKE THE CAGE EARRINGS WE MADE THE OTHER NIGHT

<gale> Like a braided rug?

<Lory> ok got it

<JANET> YES! LIKE A BRAIDED RUG!

<JANET> MORE LIKE THIS http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/index.html IN STEP TWO ONLY JUST HALF OF THAT, JUST ONE COIL

<JANET> UNTIL YOU'RE OUT OF WIRE

<JANET> AND YOU CAN SLIP YOUR PLIERS OUT AND HOLD THE COIL AS IT GETS BIGGER, YOU DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE YOUR PLIER TIPS IN THERE

<Lory> got it

<JANET> USE THEM TO HELP YOU MAKE THE COIL

<JANET> AND IT IS THE SAME THING WE'RE GOING TO DO WITH IT AS WE DID WITH THE CAGE...

<JANET> AFTER WE HAVE ALL THE WIRE COILED...

<JANET> THAT 5-6" WE BENT DOWN BECOMES OUR TREE TRUNK!

<JANET> AND WE'RE GOING TO STRETCH OUR COIL DOWN TO BECOME THE TREE

<JANET> IT'S MAGIC! IT BECOMES THE TREE!

<gale> cool!

<JANET> AND IT REALLY WORKS. AND LOOKS JUST LIKE THAT TREE.

<JANET> AND IT MAKES LIKE A 3-4" TALL TREE AND YOU HAVE ABOUT 2-3 OR SO INCHES OF WIRE STICKING OUT BELOW THAT

<JANET> AND YOU BEND IT TO MAKE THE BASE

<gale> and it's an ornament?

<JANET> BEND IT AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE, ABOUT 3/4" OF THAT AND THEN BEND IT BACK TO THE BASE, THEN BEND IT BACK OUT IN ANOTHER DIRECTION FOR ANOTHER LEG OF THE BASE

<JANET> YES, YOU CAN PUT A HOOK ON THE TOP FOR AN ORNAMENT

<JANET> OR YOU CAN MAKE A LIL FOREST OF THEM FOR YOUR MANTLE

<JANET> THIS IS WHY WE PUT A BASE ON THEM, SO THEY CAN STAND UP

<JANET> YOU CAN GET LITTLE BEADS AND WIRE THEM TO THE TREE IF YOU WANT

<cak> lol (and you don't have to water this one)

<JANET> JUST TAKE OFF ON THIS AND DO WHATEVER APPEALS

<JANET> YOU CAN EVEN PUT EARWIRES ON THE TOP AND WEAR THEM

<JANET> OR MAKE A JUMP RING AND WEAR IT AS A PENDANT

<Cheri> add charms

<JANET> OR TAKE YOUR CHASING HAMMER TO IT, SMASH IT FLAT AND WEAR IT AS A FLAT PENDANT

<JANET> IT'S YOUR TREE! DO WHATEVER YOU WANT. THESE ARE FUN!

<Lory> ok thanks janet, night all

<JANET> TAKE CARE, LORY. REPORT BACK ON WHAT YOU MAKE

<cak> (night Lory)

<gale> I bet it would be cute with glass beads on it. Maybe clear-ish ones

<Lory> lol janet

<JANET> OOO YES

<Cheri> would you just glue them in place?

<JANET> OR OH THIS WOULD BE FUN, GET SOME SILK THREAD AND SEW SEED BEADS ON IT AS ORNAMENTS

<JANET> OR GLUE THEM!

<JANET> OR PUT THEM ON 26 GAUGE REALLY LIGHT WIRE AND WIRE THEM ON

<Cheri> cool

<JANET> YOU COULD DO ANYTHING!

<JANET> OR YOU COULD EVEN STRING GREEN SEED BEADS ALL THE WAY UP THIS THING IF YOU'D USED LIGHT ENOUGH WIRE

<cak> ooo lovely

<cak> I wonder if you could do a series of 'em to put over minilights

<cak> hmmm--that wouldn't look so great though

<cak> (it's late)

<gale> tiny shrink plastic ornament

<gale> s

<JANET> (SEEDS WON'T STRING ON 24 GAUGE BUT THEY WILL ON 26, I KNOW THIS)

<gale> that would look cool-green seed beads

<gale> I'm holding a baby

<gale> btw

<JANET> OOOO YES! AND A SHRINKY DINK STAR

<JANET> OH!

<gale> can you punch shrink plastic?

<JANET> SOMEONE HAD BEAD PACKS ON SPECIAL

<JANET> UHHHH LET ME THINK

<gale> that would be an easy way to get small...

<gale> aliciag

<JANET> APPALOOSA!

<JANET> THEY HAVE BEAD PACKS! ALICIA G AND APPALOOSA!

<Kimberly> im outa here

<gale> shapes

<gale> or bubble lights

<gale> cool!

<gale> bubble night lights with a tree on them

<JANET> THOSE WOULD BE YUMMY HUNG ON THERE

<JANET> CAK, THOSE MINI LIGHTS, HOW WOULD IT LOOK IF YOU PUT ONE INSIDE A TREE?

<Rosem> ooo mini lights on the wire trees

<JANET> COULD BE POSSIBLE. I "WON" ONE OF MY OWN PLIER DRAWERS

<Rosem> with the little battery packs?

<JANET> I NEEDED IT

<Rosem> lol

<cak> Yeah, that's what I was wondering. My mind isn't working very well right now

<JANET> OOO THOSE WOULD BE COOL

<Rosem> I bet they'd do more than one tree

<cak> (no comments, please)

<Rosem> rofl cak!

<JANET> THE LAST ORNAMENT ON THE CLASS PAGE IS A CAGE

Rosem missed a great opportunity

<JANET> MADE JUST LIKE THE CAGE EARRINGS WE DID THE OTHER NIGHT

<JANET> http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/index.html

<JANET> AND YOU CAN MAKE THEM AS BIG AS YOU WANT

<JANET> THE RED-GREEN-GOLD TRI COLOR ONE ON THE CLASS PAGE AT http://www.weebewire.com/class/earring/cage/index.html I MADE WITH ABOUT 36" OF WIRE

<JANET> AND IT'S A BIG MAMA

<Cheri> 6"

<JANET> THE ONE ON THE EARRING CLASS PAGE I DID WITH ABOUT 12" OF WIRE I THINK, IT'S EARRING SIZED

<cak> that's a lot of wire!

<JANET> WELL, MY ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO PUT A TREE INSIDE IT.

<JANET> THAT LOOKED STUPID
