| Denim
Blues |
| Once denim was
developed and took a foothold it was here to stay and has become a
timeless fashion staple. I initially intended this bracelet for my
daughter who wears nothing but denim jeans. However, it ended up too
large for her so I'll just have to keep it for myself. |

| I was hoarding
four shades of metallic gold delicas for over a year before I
decided what to make with them. When I paired the delicates with the
24k gold lined crystal the idea sparked. I also made a strung
companion bracelet of the gold lined crystals and Swarovski 4mm
topaz rounds. Gold is the material of choice for timeless elegance
and sophistication. |
