I'm a bracelet kind of a gal. I really love making them. Maybe it's because my wrists are the only skinny part of me! LOL These are especially fun because I can add my other passion, "textiles!" I love working with the silk and, of course, the color has great appeal. Many of these ribbons are from
Lisa Jurist. What a great etsy shop she has. All I need to do is to add a couple of brightly colored enamel beads and you're home!
I have many of these bracelets that I wear ... not all at once ... but I bet I could! They are a favorite. The bracelet is about 75% metal and 25% other colorful stuff! I've decided to start selling these ... and at the ridiculous price of $22, I might add! If you're interested, just go to www.paintingwithfireartwear.com and click on "jewelry" at the sidebar and you'll be taken right to them.

Please visit me at my blog for a look at some other bangles I'm making that are enameled. But before you go, let me ask you this: Do you have a special thing you like to make? What is it? Why do you like to make it? Thanks for sharing ... it will help to turn this "monologue" into a "dialogue!" |
