New wire angel design

I make angels at Christmas time with sea glass, and various glass beads. Last year, I got on a roll...only meant to make a couple of them, and ended up with 30 or 40 of them. Well...my Gal Pal Christie wanted a couple of black angels. I haven't been able to find the beads I wanted for them, so I started looking for different designs that I could do for her using an oxidized steel wire, and black beads. The design I found had two wings, and was a front view of an angel. I tweaked the design, and have a side view with only one wing. Her head is bowed...and I'm just thrilled with this design! She's sooooo sweet.

She measures not quite 2" long, and around 1 3/4" from wing tip to the edge of her bowed head.

And that's what I've been doing today.
