Imagination Facination Bracelet | The creator of this piece says: This bracelet is an African opal bracelet with Czech crystal bi-cone flirts.
How to make it:
Cut two pieces of leather cord about 1 1/2" shorter than you want it to be to allow for the focal bead and the clasp. I used a heavier 20 gauge half hard sterling silver wire, and did a basic wire wrap loop on either end of the bead. |
I attached a 5mm jump ring to the wire loops that would allow for the anchor for the leather. Pass the leather cord through the jump rings and fold it back on itself. Use a 22 gauge wire for the wire wrap around the leather to hold it in place at the jump ring. Wire wrap the open ends of the leather together. Pull the last ring out perpendicular to the wrap so you can attach the toggle to it.
Last but not least, adorn your focal stone with bi-cone crystals. Attach these to the jump rings on either side of the focal stone. Use a simple charm style wrap in 24 gauge sterling sliver. |
About the Artist: Tish McDermottAbout two years ago, I began making jewelry when I couldn't find anything that 'did it' for me in the mass-produced, commercial jewelry. I started out by looking at how commercial pieces were made, and thought I would try it. The stones I use speak to me, whispering confidence, peace, and protection. My pieces are unique, choosing stones for their properties rather than their colors.
Once I started making jewelry for myself, it became my passion, my obsession, my therapy, my joy. JustATish designs were born!
My inspiration comes from everything around me. In my dreams, I process the sights, sounds, and experiences of the day and design the next day's jewelry. View Tish McDermott's website at Just a Tish. Other Pieces by this Artist
