Haven't been blogging for a while but I have been beading. :)
Did this bracelet a couple of months ago. It's made using a simple netting technique, from a pattern called Crystal Suspense by Gwen Fisher and Florence Turnour, from the Best of Beadwork book.
I used 4mm rondelles and size 15 seed beads alternating with size 13 Charlotte single-cuts.
I love this because it works up really fast. You can finish it in a couple of hours, maybe less if you work fast enough.
The pattern was for a bangle but I actually ran out of rondelles so I made it a bracelet. I used a bead cap at both ends, put a flexible wire in the center of the tube and crimped it with the clasp.
The finished bracelet. It's one of my favorites, I like wearing it and people have noticed it. It's simple yet elegant.
