CONTEST Item #:	43
A New Heirloom for family
A Humming Bird with a Pansy in a Victorian style is one of the favorites through the years.(Timeless) Of course the wide scale of color in Delica Beads make them so fun to work with. I used a medium weight clasp to keep bracelet in balance so picture is always on top. I also made the beaded band having two different looks. One style is straight beading the other style is to put clasp through the band once or twice to make a twisted design as shown in picture.
Stitch	Peyote stitch for the main part, back part is strung pearls, crystals and silver separators.
Beads Used	No.11 Delica beads, 1 small round bead for eye of hummingbird. Size 3 pearls, crystals and silver separators.
Approx Finished Size	7in x 1-1/4in
