Feature Designer : Alilsumptinsumptin's Turquoise Garden Bracelet

Alilsumptinsumptin aka as Eva, is a California based artisan whose favourite themes for her jewelry designs are flower gardens and dogs. Indeed, it was her whimsical black and white doggy creations that first captured my attention.

In the end though, I chose her Turquoise Garden bracelet because it clearly shows her attention to detail and flair for putting it all together. The beautiful lampwork blooms are the work of her favourite bead artist, Dawn White. Notice how she has added silver and turquoise coloured Swarovski crystals to enhance the flowers. Karen Hill Tribe silver leaves were added in keeping with her garden theme. Turquoise gemstones appear as stacked faceted rondelles, beautiful heartshaped cabochon clasps and a single cabochon flower charm seen at the bottom left. All in all, she has packed just the right number of pretty dangles to make this a truly "charmed" bracelet.
