Assembing Vintage Beads into Bracelets

I made a whole lot of assemblage bracelets recently. I was inspired to do so when a necklace fell apart! Although I liked the beads in the necklace, it wasn't a great length for me so I though rather than repair it I'd use it to make a beaded lanyard (which will be on sale soon in the Crafty Green Poet Etsy shop). I then realised I could use the extra beads to make bracelets and I searched among all my stash of broken jewellery for beads with the same wire setting to them. I ended up making seven bracelets, all of which will end up in the Crafty Green Poet Etsy shop! These two are already there:

These have been great fun to make and I'm hoping to make more in the future!

  1. These are so cleverly done. I look at your stuff and think that you would do very well in a place like Brick Lane in London. I know it's quite trendy these days and choc-a with craftspeople but your artwork is unique. You would stand out for sure. Now, about the journey... :-)
