An opportunity to make a few pieces to give away as prizes in a decorating contest came up and I thought it would be so fun to give out a bracelet and earring set. And what better to make them with, than Blue Moon seed beads?
I found some colors that went well together: Gold, pearl and green. As you can see from the pictures, I dispersed the pearls between the green seed beads and added a lovely gold clasp.
This piece was so easy to make! Then I grabbed a few more pearls and whipped up simple but elegant earrings.
This took no time at all to make.
MEMORY WIRE BRACELET
If you have ever used memory wire, you know that you dont actually need a clasp for this kind, because it just wraps around your wrist. I found some fun beads in various shapes and sizes, again all from the bead box Blue Moon Beads sent me for being on their design team.
I strung them up randomly, because I find that looks best with memory wire and looped the ends, adding a bead dangle to make it a little cuter. Again, I took some of the same beads I had been already using and made simple earrings to match.
Anyways, the decorating contest went spledidly and my prizes were a hit! These seriously hardly took any time at all to make, so go ahead and give it a try.
Ooh, I really love the three stranded bracelet!
