I did this bracelet today for a regular customer; she had requested a bracelet similar to one I had done before, but in different hues. I just happened to have recently acquired some beads in those very colors (ivory, tan and gray) and had been wanting to do something in those colors. I went and found some fabulous wooden jasper barrels on Ebay and was thrilled that they worked in the bracelet like I hoped they would. Here's how it turned out:

"High Sierra" |
Pewter sun totem, little sun-looking bead and pewter toggle clasp from
Happy Mango Beads. From left, crazy agate, ivory bone, one lampwork spacer bead in vanilla by
Beingbeads, pewter sun totem, labradorite, wooden jasper, more bone beads, and some little mystery beads which I think might be scenic jasper. Sterling silver beadcaps from
ArtBeads.
Beautiful work and I love the color palette. Happy New Year!
