Another Wavy Bracelet

I decided to try one out of thinner copper. I was doing well, then I soldered the bangle with the wrong side facing out. I wanted to do something different but since I now had no texture in the inside, the best way to cover it up was with the silver wire “bones”. I put a bunch on this one.

I also used silver solder on this one and since it’s more malleable, I was able to get the copper folded over without it cracking.

 

This is both bangles stacked together. It needs another one and hopefully my next one will go in the middle with different embellishments. WavyBangles

Wavy Bangle

This is my first wavy bangle that I learned from a tutorial that Robyn Cornelius wrote up. I decided to use copper for my first one since sterling silver is so expensive. Don’t want to make any mistakes. I just happened to have some copper strips already cut so I used one of them. It was too thick so I wasn’t able to get the shape round but I kind of like the organic look.

This is the way it looks flat.

Couple of side view pictures. Forgive the orange bead prop in the last picture. That was the only thing I had sitting on my table that worked.

Two Blue Bracelets

I got these done this weekend…..

BlueBracelets

I know the back side of the white paper has printing on it but I was too lazy to take another picture or edit it out. I know I should spend more time on my photos but then that would take away time from making things. It’s either priorities or laziness….

Three More Ladder Bracelets

I did well and sold all the ladder bracelets I had previously made. I wanted more to sell at the next craft show so I’m making more of them. Good thing I have a stock of buttons already made up.

Hopefully I’ll be able to make a few more up before the show.

Two Ladder Bracelets

I’ve been making bracelets like crazy this week. I made two more double ladder bracelets with glass buttons.

One has jasper round beads and the other uses yellow moss jasper beads.

Bracelets!!

I got a chance to make more bracelets. I was using frit on the big hole beads are really liked it so I decided to use some on these smaller beads.

I really like the color line on this one. The pastel greens really work with the pink. Might have to do more of these. Course, I might be the only one that likes pink so much.

I either don’t make that many blue things or I sell them all. I seem to always end up with hardly any blue things after a show. I really like the Wedgewood blue color in this bracelet

This one didn’t work out as planned. I made the frit beads and thought I was going to get some nice green and pink colors. Boy, was I surprised when I opened the kiln. Actually these were supposed to go into the first bracelet. I had to make more frit bead for that bracelet. Then I had these. I decided to combined them with some other green and opal yellow beads. There’s also one silver glass spacer in the mix too.
