Blue & Green Bracelets, Perfect for Summer



I haven't created new jewellery with prints of my paintings for a while now and, as I had two pendants connectors ready to be used, I thought I could create a couple of blue and green bracelets, the perfect summer accessory, especially as I just acquired some new lampwork beads by Helen G Beads from Exeter Craft Festival that I was eager to use.


Materials:

-pendant connectors with prints after my paintings
-various beads to complement the colour and the style of the image
-lampwork beads from Helen G Beads
-bronze findings


Taking all blue and green beads and gemstones out to see which ones to use. Then getting everything ready: tools, beads and bronze findings. 


Summer Bracelet 1



Choosing the gemstones and beads for the bracelet 1 so the colours will complement the art print of the pendant.


Starting to make the rosary style connectors using turquoise gemstones, lava beads and lampwork beads. 


The making of.


All finished! Painted my nails especially for the photo shoot. 



Summer Bracelet 2



Choosing the beads and gemstones. 


Trying to visualise what it would look like with the beads I have chosen. 


Yes, I like the colour combination. Do you?


The rosary style connectors are all done and ready to complete the bracelet.





The bracelets are available here but I am so tempted to keep at least one for myself. Do you like the colours? Which bracelet is your favourite?
