Someone asked me about making a mother's bracelet. She told me the months, and I got the Swarovski birthstone colors. Since I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do, I did a prototype in copper, but I'm REALLY happy with how this came out!

That's lovely. I'm sure that she'll love it and want it in copper, silver or anything else you can give her.

Jerri, I like it in copper, it goes with the colors of the crystals.

Jerri -- I LOVE that particular wire wrapping technique, especially how it ends in the clasp. If I send you some beads will you make one for me? You will be required to charge me for it.

This was the first time I tried something like this, working from the middle. For this one, I made a separate hook and eye.
I'd be happy to make you one!
You never cease to amaze me Jerri. I don't even like wearing copper and I want to wear that one! lol!
Thanks everyone, for the comments!
I showed it to a friend of mine who asked me about Mother's Bracelets, and didn't they usually have the names of the kids done in those little blocks?
Lol!! Can you imagine one made with 6 names?
What an amazing bracelet! So structured, but so elegant. I think it would be great in copper, but it will be interesting to see those crystal colors with silver if that's what she chooses.
