RAW. A stitch I don't use very often. but sometimes it can be just the right texture and rhythm for the beads.
These are a gun metal color of crystals that I got from ZnetShows and I absolutely love them. I used a variation on the stitch to include two smaller beads (size 16) to each crystal and it created a beautiful, simple bracelet band.
I added a slide clasp and silver charm with the tree of life. Which I think looks quite nice as the focal to the bracelet. This piece was the last one I made. And so it was just a tad late, and isn't shown in the recent Spark Magazine. But I thought you all might like to see just one more design as I finish out my Summer Design Series.
I love your choice of beads with this stitch! So elegant. The tree of life is one of my favorite symbols. :)
ReplyDeleteLove it! I'm going to have look up that raw stitch.

Gorgeous! Perfect for jeans or something a little more dressy. The tree of life was a great choice! I love gunmetal. The other day I was swimming in the ocean at dusk, and the water looked like liquid mercury, it was reflecting silver and gunmetal.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad this wasn't finished in time for the the emag. I love this bracelet. Very elegant!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful bracelet ... delicate & well balanced and charming on such pretty skin!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Two types of beads can bring a lot of loveliness and this is such an everyday wearable bracelet or a dress up one too! Love it!
