Hex bead bracelet

This bracelet uses hex beads, which are just too fun.  They always catch the light and make it sparkle.  The color on this one isn’t quite right.  It is really a hematite color with the red accent beads.  And see, I made another beaded clasp!

Vintage button bracelet with pearls.

This is a simple peyote band, except for the holes I left in it so I could put in some pearls.  They matched the delica beads almost perfectly.  The button is a vintage one my mom gave me.  Thanks mom!

Pink!

Sylvie's Head over Heals bracelet

Yes, Sylvie has class.  She also teaches classes.  I took one of her classes over New Year, and we learned to make a cute little ring and a bracelet.  Sylvie is a great teacher, and you can see more of her work at her web site. The ring was super cute… i.e. not me.  So I gave it to my friend Heidi, since she is super cute. :)   The bracelet you see here is one of Sylvie’s, and mine is so not like it.  I’m not quite done with it yet, but as soon as I get it done I will post a picture.
