I am sorry I haven't been doing much blogging. I decided I would add some of the latest in bracelets so you can see what I am doing.
The single bracelet is made of Swarovski crystal aurora borealis cubes and some antique-looking bead caps. The cubes were ordered for another bracelet I wanted to try. I tried it and didn't like it. So I decided that, since I have always liked these bracelets, I would make myself a bracelet. I like it very much.
The photo with the two green bracelets are "sidewinders" made with Czech green firepolished beads down the center. The each of these bracelets have different small Czech beads on the edges. The lavendar bracelet is called a "helix bracelet." It is the second one I have made.
The red, silver and black bracelet is made using seed beads and a square stitch. It was my first attempt at designing this type of bracelet. I learned some things and will make another, making use of what I learned on the first one.
The third picture (regardless where it is on the page) has a bangle bracelet and the aqua bracelet is a spiral pattern using several sizes of seed beads. I like it and plan to make another one in different colors.
I tried my hand at a triple spiral. It doesn't spiral exactly correctly. So I am going to have to try another bracelet to see if I can figure out what I did wrong.
That's it for this time. Tune again!
