Deco Bracelet

With a huge bow to Lisa Kan, and her Bead Romantique book, I altered her Deco Necklace pattern, which called for 5 unit rounds, to 3 unit rounds, and did a simpler clasp. Being mostly wire-challenged, I gave up trying to make decent loops for the amethyst drops ( after breaking two of them!), and hung them on snake-shaped headpins, adding Swar 4mm and Czech roundelles. It was fun and easy to make, and will become a favorite of mine to wear...I just love slinky bracelets!

For Gail

This is for you, dear Friend, who watches our Tippy when we have to leave town (and spoils him rotten, and laughs off his faux pas!), fixes us tea, shares hours of interesting conversations on any topic, and doesn't mind me organizing or rearranging her home!

She is also my Mary Kay rep, so the colors are those....wear them in good health, Gail!
