EE bracelet 1
I made this for my friend EE. It is sterling silver
and my lampwork beads. She has a small wrist
so it is pretty small. The wire is 14 gauge which
is perfect for lampwork beads made with a
1/16 mandrel. The clasp is made from the
same wire and pounded flat. The other beads
are sterling silver.
JB bracelet 1-
This bracelet was made in honor of st patrick's
day. It has frosted dark and medium
transparent green lentels and tiny frosted clear
seed type beads for spacers. I like my
bracelets to fit snug and not jangle around.

This bracelet is sterling silver. The lampwork beads aren't mine, I
bought these when I first started to get interested in glass
beads.  The wire is 14 gauge which is perfect for lampwork beads
made with a 1/16 mandrel. The clasp is made from the same
wire and pounded flat. The other beads are sterling silver. I took
this photo in the car on the way to a party. I like the way it
sparkles.
