Two bracelets and a ring

Hi Folks

Been making some new pieces from patterns on the French Beading Forum - http://www.ileauxperles.com/.
















I love making rings, so had to have a go at this one. It's quite a big ring with the centre bead measuring 10mm (1cm).

The first bracelet is very chunky, so I have to feel brave when I'm wearing it :-/ I don't normally "do" chunky. The second bracelet is a beautiful shade of blues, with a hint of topaz.... see the seedies










Anyway, I'd love to have some comments, so please feel free to post some.

Cheers
Carrie

Two new pieces

Hi there, I've been playing again and created two new pieces. The first is a Swarovski crystal version of my red Baroca Bead necklace. I absolutely love this necklace, I can wear it with anything.























This second piece is a bracelet I've made for my mother-in-law. It's her birthday soon and she absolutely loves butterflies and purple.

My newest pieces

So, didn't I say I was going to add piccies of my new pieces??? Yep, I did, so here they are.

My first go at beading around a Swarovski Rivoli. This Rivoli is 18mm in size. Took me a few goes to get it, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.














This next piece is my version of a Baroca Bead. Love it and I've since make a clear crystal version. I'll pop a piccie up when I take one.

























Last, but not least, is a beaded bead bracelet (pattern in the latest B&B mag). Again, I have made this using clear crystals, but have added teal coloured swaro bicones as well. And yes, that's my arm... :)
