recycled glass bracelet

I think I might have made this bracelet 5 different ways this afternoon! I had all sorts of beads out over my desk, and nothing was quite working for the longest time.

So I stopped for lunch, played with the kids (it’s a public holiday here), and then went back to it after a while. I wish I could say “and voila” but I did end up with this bracelet (and I think it’s rather pretty)!

Beads were made from various wine and gin bottles with assorted embellishments.

I love how the light sparkles through this bracelet! I have made the beads from a mixture of wine and beer bottles. I have decorated the beads with smashed up glass, giving it a real mix of colours. The clear beads in between definitely add to the sparkle.

I like that this bracelet is perfect for everyday wear, and could also be worn for special occasions. I’m looking forward to making more bracelets like this. And in case you are wondering, they are surprisingly comfortable to wear!
