Default Bee and Dragonfly tutorial?

I was just checking to see if there would be anyone interested in a bee/dragonfly wire work tutorial. I've had a couple request to do one and thought I would see. This is a pic of the dragonfly pendant that I made. I thought about doing this with the leaf pendant and either "BUG" could be fastened to the pendant.

Thank you! I started on it last night and I worked on it for 4 hours but had to stop and take the rest of the night off. LOL! I hope to have it done in the next 2 weeks if not sooner.

I'll carefully hurry Corey. I have all day during the week to work on this but I have to set myself a deadline and 2 weeks is it. I really need to have it done sooner because my parents will be here in 2 weeks and I have to clean house.

I was wanting your oppinions on this tutorial. Would you rather have 2 different tutorials? I could do one tutorial for the dragonfly on the leaf pendant and another for the bee on a round pendant. My original idea was to do this tutorial for the dragonfly and bee but have it on just the leaf pendant but if I do 2 tutorials then I could add the round pendant. This way people would have a choice if they didn't want both. What do you think? Here is a pic of the bee on a round pendant. I'm re-designing the bee a bit but its close to this one. Just let me know your thoughts on this.

My vote is for two separate.

I was seriously looking forward to making the round. If I have to figure it out myself, it isn't going to happen

Hehehe! I just like the round pendant with the bee best but it may be too confusing to have everything on one tutorial.

They are beautiful. I don't think I would be able to make them as my hands don't do too well with wire wrapping. Just not strong or steady enough for the details. I sure do love to look at it and dream though. If I were to buy a tutorial I think it would be great to have them split up.

Thanks everyone! I'm glad we all think alike. I'm still working on the bee tutorial but we had to do our taxes and I'm a little behind. Trying to get caught up now.

I own the bee pendant and I can't tell you how thrilled I am to have the original! It is amazing! Did you know (according to some baby name books) that Deborah means "bee"?
