This month’s charm swap and challenge for Latest Trends in Mixed Media has a Las Vegas theme. I have had several ideas come into my head since signing up but one keeps coming back to me. It involves a full-sized die in a wire cage. I was sure this would be it when I came across a package of ten different colored dice at the local dollar store.
Last night I sat down with jewelry wire, a cork from a bottle of wine to use to form a cage, and my package of dice. The cage idea was not as easy as I first thought it would be. So, instead of a cage as I couldn’t get one I liked, I tried to different holdings with the wire of the die. I am not totally happy with either but am going to post the image as maybe someone can help with what I really want these to look like. I hate when what I see in my mind’s eye doesn’t happen the first few times.
