Andrew Thorntons July Challenge
a month ago, I joined Andrew Thornton's July Challenge.........I bought the Challenge Kit from Andrew, it was in beautiful shades of green! I chose to make a charm bracelet with the kit...but the chain included in the kit wasn't working to hang such substancial charms from, so I added some antique copper chain along with the antique brass chain in the kit, and it worked beautifully!since I had lots of left over chain, I went crazy with dangles comming off the clasp area....its a simple design, but I love it and have worn it a lot since making it, I call it wrist chimes, because it definitely makes a nice tinkling noise when it is worn!

ReplyDeleteA lovely creation indeed ! I find your bracelet tassel a very unique and charming touch and I've always adored bracelets that make a happy, tinkling, musical sound.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I like how you've incorporated everything to create a really stylish bracelet. It makes me think of woodland music, especially with all the movement. I am so happy that you were able to participate! What a truly lovely creation!
