Bracelet by a newcomer
« on: April 05, 2011, 03:43:34 PM »

Hi, I just joined the Forum and thought I would post a couple of my recent designs.  I hope people will give me feedback.  This is a bracelet that I custom made for someone.  It includes vintage glass beads and an assortment of buttons sewn on an elastic band.  For this bracelet, I attached blue stretch sequins to the elastic for a little background color and I used Victorian brass jewelry parts.

Looks beautiful from what I can see...do you have a bigger image?  I can't get this one to blow up without distortion.

Thanks, I don't have other pictures to upload, but you can see more views of it on my site, www.uniqlets.com.  It is CB bracelet under custom bracelets.  If you have any suggestions on better pictures, I appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks again,
Lisa

How did you do that with the picture?  I tried but it didn't work.

Thanks, no, the gold color metal pieces are parts of vintage Victorian jewelry.  I combined the pieces with vintage buttons, beads and other objects on elastic.

Did you sell the original piece you posted? I can't seem to find it on your site, but I sure found some other great stuff! :)

Those 2 were custom bracelets, in custom gallery - RJ and CB bracelets.  Thank you, I'm trying.
