Clearly Crystals

Made this bracelet with 324 swarovski® crystals (4mm 5301 AB 237), 312 size 6 seed beads (52 x 6), 40g of size 11 seed beads. This pattern is from Bead&Button Magazine Issue 76.

When wearing the bracelet, it looks like a shimmering bangle. Impact is simply stunning.

Looking back, realised that I've been making bracelets !!! Must start doing something different for a change ;p

Another Caterpillar Bracelet

Another experimentation of the caterpillar bracelet for my gd fren Sio Hong. I've made this bracelet using swarovski® crystals as she loves crystals very very much.

For this bracelet, I've used 2 pkts of 72 4mm bicones (left 4pcs after the project) for this 6.5 inch (70 8mm beads) bracelet. Each row has 4 loops (11mm seed beads), 1 crystal for each loop.

Crown Jewel

I couldn't wait to share my excitment with my beading kakis today that I quickly took a photo of my Crown Jewel with my mobile and email them; even though it is incomplete (cos the holes are supposed to be filled with bicones. I think I will not add the crystals to those uneven size hole as it will really be a challenge to me). This got the group into excitment to make the jewel too ;p

Without EP & SN, I won't be able to do this exquisite jewel. My favorite piece thus far =D. This is a bigger version than the intended piece cos I've made it with 18mm rivolis (my only rivolis I've bought last week, thanks to EP). SY has even helped to improve the roundness of this ball.

I'm really thrilled by this and it inspired me to make a better piece using size 14mm rivolis.

Amanda

Amanda (Irene's colleague cum fren whom has also become my fren now) saw the turquoise liked beaded ear ring I've gave Irene. She liked it so much that I told her I'll make one for her =). Amanda loves stuff in green or white. So, I've decided to make a pair of green ear rings for her.

Amanda's built is bigger than Irene. So, I thought size 11 beads will be a better choice to make this pair (heee heee.... I also don't have many variation of size 15 green beads ;p).

Iolite Recyled Bracelet

I've gave my Iolite bracelet a new look. I've converted it into another caterpillar bracelet. Originally, I've planned to do the bracelet solely with Iolite. It's a pity I don't have enough of the Iolite disc like beads & I can't buy it elsewhere (cos the string of Iolite was a last pc in the shop =<). Nevertheless, the mixture of Iolite, fresh water pearls and sliver seed beads produce a stunning impact after all =D
