Teal Lace & Cameo Couture

The following two designs have been a while in the making...

The teal-coloured lace bracelet is one we've done a few times before... but "S" had her heart set on using these beads to make another one... she just had to find somewhere that sold the perfect colour first! The cameo bracelet had begun to be made a long time ago - it was just never put together and finished... until now. The cameo itself is acrylic, as are the faceted 'stones'... but seeing as they went so well together, we decided that using acrylic stones would be okay just this once :)

Autumn Gold

Loved this simple design of lacy necklace! "S" chose autumn colours and made the "Autumn Gold" necklace, and "L" chose pinks and created the "Fizzy Pink" lace necklace.

Crystal Cuff

These were so much fun to make - of course "S" had the green colours, and "L" chose the blue :)

We always think how funny it is how a different bead - even if it's supposed to be the same size - will end up making a bracelet that's longer or shorter than when using another bead.

Something to ponder...

Jewel Lace

To be honest there's only so many different stitches you can use in creating pretty bracelets, so we've been adapting patterns to make our own designs.

These designs were inspired by a free pattern provided by Sandra D. Halpenny - and we've invested in buying a few of her tutorials/designs too - reasonably priced and oh, so beautiful!

Racy Lacy...

Some bracelets are a bit addictive. You make one, and then end up wondering how it would look in other colours, others crystals or gems... That's how it was with the lacy bracelets. It started off with the Victoriana Romance, quickly followed by the Clear Crystal:

 Then the Nouveau:

And also the Gold Glint:
