Spring Bracelet



This is a bracelet I made that will be in the 
2014 Spring issue of Jewelry Stringing magazine. 
I'm selling 3 starter kits on Etsy.
This is a Starter Kit to make a bracelet
similar to mine. 
A great way to feature an artisan bead.
You can add a different toggle like the one I used in the magazine,
I used a Green Girl butterfly toggle (not included in this kit.) 
(Lima beads has them for $10.00 each)
You can then add a spring themed Grace bead of your choosing
 to go with this kit. 
(Grace bead not included in this starter kit) 
I went with the puffed pillow Bee bead. 
But a flower design or dragonfly might be more your style.
Which can be found at Art beads, Lima beads, and Grace beads.
Approx $9.00 a piece
Then string it up on stringing wire of your choice. 


You will get:

1 - Antique silver metal 26mm flower toggle

9 - Spring Green frosted glass flower beads (top drilled)

2 -10mm Hamilton gold glass pearl beads

1 - 8mm Hamilton gold glass pearl

2 - 8mm soft green glass pearl beads

2 - 8mm light green glass pearl beads

5 - 6mm soft green glass pearls
2 - 4mm silver plated metal beads

4 - Antique silver metal bead caps
The kit is $5.00 
the shipping is $2.00 first class mail

Awesome R.A.K.

Just received this R.A.K from Deb, a soldered pendant.
 She called it an experiment ... 
I called it Wonderful!
All I had to do was add the beads 
and some chain from my stash.
Thank You so much Deb for this and for the stack of paper 
you recently gifted me too!
I really appreciate them and  All that you do!

I C Y

Or
I See Why 
it's a mess out there.

Today we got a little sun shine. 
Not enough to melt the ice off though.

May everybody get their power restored soon.
