femme romantic pink collection wrap bracelet

beautiful finished collection bracelet in the sunshine

 so, usually i ignore the pink end of things. i like unisex or grungy far more and its a bit of a strange thing for a guy to make such girly things. or thats my mindset when i find myself looking at pink beads that just arent right for what i want to do. oh and these are SO shiny and really quite saturated pinks.

this first round of the bead sorting and stringing went well enough. i like the colors together in the amounts that they are. but it was too hello kitty for me. i decided to add in brass accent beads randomly. they are antiqued so they help to offset the pure shine of the pearls. sorry guys didnt get a photo before the additions after.

 a few angles and different backgrounds to show how much of a feeling change what the bracelet is with causes.

after i added the brass beads it was still a little too plain, so i went and looked through my grandmothers cloth stash, it was quite extensive! and i chose a few fabrics to add on as bows to add texture and further make the whole bracelet match itself better. i think that the cloth strips really make the bracelet.

this bracelet is currently available, get in touch with me on one of my sites or here if youd like to give it a home.
