Cheap Bracelet Tutorial

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 12:49:08 -0500

$5.00
A local bead shop has started teaching my bracelet design without my permission. Since my copyright is not being taken seriously, I have decided to offer the instructions to you for only $5.00. This is a $30.00 savings on the class fee, not to mention whatever gas it would have taken to drive to said shop. This has really angered me because I enjoyed teaching this particular class, and the $5.00 is even a $30.00 savings to you had I taught the class. Petty? Perhaps, but copyright should be taken seriously and I'm making a small stand. And I appreciate the moral support that has been given me on this issue.

Make your own bracelet, with your own beads, at your own speed using my detailed pattern and instructions. This listing is for complete instructions for making this bracelet. You receive step by step instructions for reading the chart, stitching, hints on how to shorten or lengthen the pattern, the amount and colors of the beads used for the sample and two variations, finishing the stitch and how to attach a clasp. This is a five-page tutorial.

Within 48 hours of HAVING RECEIVED PAYMENT, I will email the PDF file to you. I'll be happy to help you with any problems or questions you may have about the instructions or the pattern. Please do not hesitate to contact me.

These instructions and the pattern are copyright protected. They may not be copied, sold or distributed without my express written permission. Please do not print extra copies to give to your friends or pass around to your beading group. Please not do make the bracelet with the intent to sell it. It is for your personal use only. If you would like to make it for sale, please contact me first and we can discuss that issue (I'm really very nice about that).

Peachy Keen Earrings

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:26:36 -0400

$12.00
These cute little earrings are just like ripe peaches ready to be plucked from the tree. I've had the "peaches" for a while and a few weeks ago they jumped up and said "HEY, make something!" So, I did.

Marbled peachy colored Czech glass beads are combined with emerald green Czech pressed glass leaves. Tiny vintage brass bead caps are also added and everything is wrapped on brass head pins and suspended from brass ear wires with leaf stampings. Overall dangle length is 1 3/8" (3.5cm). My tween thinks they are "peachy"!

If you have metal allergies, I do not recommend these earrings for you!

These will be shipped wrapped in tissue paper with enough packing material to protect them in a padded mailer. Contact me if you would like it shipped via Priority Mail ($4.60). You can have a padded gift box added for an additional $1.50. I can also add insurance for $1.75.

Please note that shipping includes the cost of a mailer and padding, plus actual postage.

This is a cute, one of a kind bracelet. It has drawn attention at every show it's been to. There are three fish swimming in the brightly colored coral reef. This is a one of a kind piece, never to be repeated.

This bracelet fits a 7 1/2" wrist comfortably, and is made with Japanese seed beads, hill tribe silver fish, and a sterling silver mag-lock clasp. It is securely stitched with nylon beading thread. It took me approximately 50 hours to complete, and is based on a technique taught by my dear friend Pam Way.

Midas Beaded Bracelet

This is an elegant, one of a kind bracelet using my own technique. It is also one of my favorite techniques as it is nice and slinky, but strong. This is a one of a kind piece in that the embellishments will not be repeated, however the base color and technique will.

This bracelet fits a 7 1/2" wrist comfortably, and is made with Japanese seed beads, shell buttons, and Czech glass puffy rondell beads. It is securely stitched with woven nylon beading thread, the same type used by anglers. It took me approximately 30 hours to complete.

It will be shipped wrapped in tissue paper and a zip-lock bag, with enough packing material to protect it in a padded mailer. Contact me if you would like it shipped via Priority Mail ($4.60). You can have a padded gift box added for an additional $1.50. I can also add insurance for $1.75.

Isis Beaded Bracelet

Sun, 13 Sep 2009 10:44:03 -0400

$75.00
This is an elegant, one of a kind bracelet using several beadwork techniques. I love the combination of bronze, turquoise and pale bluish gray. For me, the color palette evokes images of ancient Egypt.

This bracelet fits a 7 1/4" wrist comfortably, and is made with Japanese seed beads and Czech glass puffy rondell beads. It is securely stitched nylon beading thread. The embellishment beads are attached using a woven nylon filament thread, the same type used by anglers. It took me approximately 26 hours to complete.

It will be shipped wrapped in tissue paper and a zip-lock bag, with enough packing material to protect it in a padded mailer. Contact me if you would like it shipped via Priority Mail ($4.60). You can have a padded gift box added for an additional $1.50. I can also add insurance for $1.75.
