Blue Lagoon Bangle
I made this bangle last year and entered it into an exhibition at a local art gallery. Using various blue and cream beads I finished it with some silver plated wirework. This is another design which I will be revisiting in the near future. I'm not sure what the twist will be yet, I'll have to see what the gems tell me to do!

New Year, New Start
I have a number of designs and makes from last year (seems weird writing that) which I haven't shared on here yet. So over the next few days, I will post photos of some of my favourite makes.
This bracelet is made using faceted Haematite, Quartz and Agate beads on a black silk cord. I finished the bracelet with a simple macrame knotted closure. I made it as a gift for a close friend who loves everything black, and guess what? She loves this bracelet.
p.s. I so wish that I hadn't accidentally deleted my previous blog - so many posts, so much information, so many tutorials, so many links, all gone forever.
