So I'm working on a purple and green bead embroidered necklace. I'm loving how it's coming along. I had a few hours of puppy nap time this week and a beautiful day on my screen porch so I opted to make a bracelet to match. Disclaimer: this is not my design, it was in Bead and Button's April 2010 issue. It worked up in just a few hours and brought in both the purple and greens that I've worked into the body of the necklace.
I kept a tight tension to create a wavy, ruffly edge. But with looser tension, this bracelet would lie flat. I however am a curly girl, so a little bit of wavy is just my thing.
How about you... when was the last time you took the time to make something special just for YOU? If you can't remember... go make something now! You're special and you deserve to know that I really value our friendship (even if we've never gotten to meet in person)!
{Hugs!}

The bracelet is so cool...of course the color combo isn't bad either!!! :~) Gotta love purple and green together...
I rarely make something specifically for me...which reminds me it is time for a new bracelet and a pair of earrings!!! I'll get on that on Monday.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend...
Cheers
It is gorgeous! Love the colors. I was thinking of redoing some of my 'tired' pieces into something a little more trendy and exciting this weekend... so we seem to be on the same wave length. Enjoy the weekend.
As beautiful as ever. Love those colors. Happy Sunday to you too
