The bottom three of these bracelets were made with the focal bead from a set of beads (in the front) that Don's daughter Leslie gave me. The focal bead on the pink and green set is one left over from a necklace and earrings set I made for myself. Often it is hard to decide what to do with one lonely bead. This was an excellent idea because all four bracelets were made with beads I had in my bead stash! They were fun to make, and especially because I had everything on hand!
