So lacy & pretty, love the colors! I've had my chain and cord sitting on my bench for a year or so... now I know how to do this thanks so much Pearl!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!! And, ahem, for a change, something that could be worn by a man. I can also imagine making it longe for a belt. Cool!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely right! This is indeed a unisex design.
DeleteWell how neat is that!
ReplyDeleteI like how she keeps all the ends finished. It really would be just a matter of some patience to make all kinds of lovely bracelets this way.
Yes, finishing is the key to great pro designs!
DeleteGlad I saw this! I have been making bracelets similar to this and putting the cord underneath a few wraps and gluing them down with e-6000, but not joining the ends together. Looks soo much better that way!!!
DeleteThanks for your design tips, Chandra!!
