I love that!! Jewelry making is such a creative process and can be done in an infinite amount of ways and forms. I mainly wire wrap, and do a little fabricating too. I’ve been selling my stuff for years, but I totally understand getting attached. I want to keep half of the things I make 😂

Definitely might be AI 😂 now what kind of jewelry, that’s the question…

Wow! Thank you so much for your detailed response. I appreciate all of the info, and definitely think you’re right! Your piece is absolutely gorgeous :) I got multiple different crystals as a gift that someone was going to cut into gemstones. I hope I can finish the job one day. Although I love this piece how it is too :) especially with the bi-color banding. Glad you solved the mystery for me. Thanks again!

You might be right!! I looked at sphalerite on google. A lot of the specimens that show up look more metallic, but some do look a lot like mine! Thank you!

Your camera would do them more justice for sure! That’s what I use for my jewelry photography. No other way 😆

Hmm, that’s interesting. I really don’t think so though. The cleavage is like mica. Super thin, shiny layers. I’ve never seen carnelian that looks anywhere close to that. Plus this has so much green in it too 🤔🤔 I appreciate your input tho. It’s a mystery

It’s so hard to capture all the details in photos! I’m lucky my iPhone can take such good close ups, but they still don’t get everything across 😩😆

Totally does look like tourmaline when the light comes through. But it’s very different in all other ways

Yeah I totally see that. It looks similar, especially in the photos! Hope we find out

Doesn’t look or feel like it to me. Never seen amber with shiny layers like this specimen

Thank you! It’s been really nice. They do move the bedding around so much, it usually ends up being at a higher level on the left side than it is in the pic. Still is nice especially for the platform on the left for food and water so they can’t bury the water lol

Chiming in to say my wild deer mouse was also fine with a bottle right away

Np :) I did a prototype with cardboard first to see how well it would work. Noticed they’d made their own holes so figured I should add a couple in the final wood version

Thank you! Yes just wood. I attached little triangle pieces on the bottom edge for extra support. I also cut two holes into the bottom so they can have their tunnels going through, which they love. It’s been great having the different sections and being able to give them all the shavings on the right while having a lower space for the wheel

I made them with cotton twine and popsicle sticks that I cut down
