Lovely blue bracelet…

blue glass bracelet

This bracelet took me hours to make!

I started making it yesterday, but it wasn’t working out so well.  I couldn’t get it right with the beads that I had made. It needed a good night’s sleep, and a rethink on how to use the beads, and this is what I finally made. I really like how the beads made from a Blue Depression glass plate (the ones that are etched), contrast so nicely with the sparkly beads made from vodka, gin and wine bottles. Really quite pretty, different, unusual, interesting, quirky! If you are curious about other Blue Depression glass jewellery that I have made, simply click on this link.

Four different beads, four different bracelets

It started out simple enough. Make a bracelet using four different types of blue beads. But as I started to make the bracelet, it made me think about other ways to make the bracelet, and that led to other ways to make the bracelet. So in the end I made all four versions of the bracelet that I had imagined as I was making the bracelets! Which one do you like best?
