Some New "Toys" To Play With!

Ok, I know that many of you out there have already discovered the joys of aluminum wire. But remember I'm pretty new at all of this so I only just discovered it this week! And boy do I love it!!!!
It's super lightweight and easy to work, yet it is strong and has plenty of "holding power". It is beautiful and shiny and bright. When you hammer it, it is just beautiful!!
I found it in the floral section of the hobby store, in this really fat 12 gauge! I got a roll of silver color and one of gold color. I haven't done anything with the gold color yet so I don't know how that will be. But here are some pieces I made with the silver.

    For someone who discover aluminium, you found the right way to play with. The result is beautiful, whith simple wires, you create somptuous necklaces.

    Curious to see what will happen with the gold one...
