Peyote Bracelet

This is my variation of the bracelet that was in the June 2005 issue of Bead and Button. The one in Bead & Button had leaves, flowers, and even a ladybug (I think) covering the clasp...this one doesn't. Also, I changed the clasp. If you have any comments, please e-mail me at wowmaw@aol.com!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Bracelet



This is my design that has been published in the 2010 Beading Bead-a-Day Calendar. It's a Right Angle Weave (RAW) bracelet embellished with 6mm Comet Argent Light Swarovski Crystals. This bracelet has some serious sparkle! :)

Rose Garden Bracelet



This bracelet is made from a pattern by Glenda Payseno (http://www.lulu.com/glendasbooks). I'm not sure what stitch this is...maybe daisy chain variation or netting variation?

Flat Cellini Bracelet


I made this a LONG time ago. It's fun to make, but you have to remember to pull really tight.

Hematite Two-Drop Peyote



This is pretty self-explanatory...lol. It's a two drop peyote bracelet made with hematite cubes and whatever Delica is called gunmetal or hematite. Then I did a braided rope edge using sterling and gunmetal 15/0s.

Two Drop Peyote Bracelets

I made these a million years ago. The pattern is in Step by Step Beads, but I can't remember which issue. They are fun and easy to make.

Tabac Pendant


I love the Tabac Swarovski's! Here are two that I bezeled around (I always want to say "embezzled"--that word gets stuck in my brain...lol) and connected. I wear it as a pendant on a neckwire. It doesn't photograph nearly as pretty as it actually is. I have two 23mm Tabac Swarovski triangles that I got from Cindy Beadlady (check my links). She's the only one that I've seen to have the Tabac triangles. I'm going to "embezzle" them, too, once I get the chance! :)
