Its always about the bling...
I took a little time yesterday and decided to embellish the bracelets that didn't sell...I went thru my bead box, and pulled 5 left over beads that I thought went well with each color scheme...then I pulled about 5-6 different color crystals and emptied my misc metallic beads onto the working mat, and set out to sew things up...Amazingly I was able to get all three of these finished in about an hour, from start to finish...I think they turned out really groovy, they're what I was looking for, and now that I've had a chance to think about it, there are SO MANY other possible things you can do to embellish these bracelets...I've posted pics on the Knitting page...and feel free to send me your pics of your embellished bracelet so I can add them to a new column in the Designer Gallery section...why not?
I've been busily watching the Chefography of Nigella Lawson...She is so wonderful, I like how 'real' she is and how she's managed to live such an interesting life with lots of heart ache (Mom, Sister and Husband all dying of cancer - sheesh)...She looks like someone who you'd wanna hang out with and have dinner...Loves her...
The torch is fired up, I'm playing and having fun...we'll see what comes of it...my horoscope said I should take things lightly, be silly, have fun...my first thought was to make silly beads w/ big googly eyes and look weird...ha...

Hmmm, those felted bracelets are really cool the way you embellished them. Do you have a sense of how much they shrink when you felt them?
