Sonja's Bracelet: A Variation


I've been working on a variation of Wendy's architectural cuff called Sonja's Bracelet.  Wendy's design is a very clever use of the geometric and multi-holed CzechMate beads  The original bracelet  is quite substantial and showcases a middle row of  Swarovski chaton sliders.   I have made a variation that will suit tiny wrists and also those who want more of an edge, than a sparkle.  By substituting bricks for one of the tiles, it is 6 mm slimmer.  It also turns out that 6 mm 2-holed pyramid studs are an easy switch for the Swarovski sliders.  You can make one of the changes, both, or none. It is fun to make and wear in all its forms.

Here's a new color way by Wendy. I've made 3 of the bracelets and she's a done a bunch too.  It is just one of those patterns that you want to make more of.  

Come join us this Saturday for this brand new class. We still have a few seats available.  Call or come by the shop to purchase your place.
