Pretty in Turquoise!

Here is another turquoise jasper design but this one in a bracelet. Petra choose to stay with the turquoise colour for the other glass beads but she definitely remembered one very helpful tip I give beaders - go with contrasts. So let's see. She has gemstone with glass, gemstone with metal, big and small beads, crackle and clear beads, and even matte vs shiny!

What I also liked about her design was the two round crystal adorned beads she chose to flank her focal gemstone. They not only framed the turquoise jasper as in "look at me! look at me!" but they helped glamorize her design. Well done!
