Saturday morning I spent a while hanging out downtown at the Concord Arts Market with my friend Ben, who gave me a handful of chainmaille pieces and asked me to wirewrap them.

Most stayed with him, and I'm looking forward to seeing what he does with them, but here's what I've done with mine:

These are two of the pieces I left with Ben:
