Seed Bead Adventures Round 3 - Spring Flowers
Note: Based on an original design and instructions ("Ring Around The Posies") by Lynn Hoffman, as featured in Beadwork Magazine (Apr/May 2006). This bracelet is not for sale until permission by the original artist is granted.
I didn't have the patience to make a necklace version of Autumn Flowers, and so created a Spring Flowers bracelet instead!
This time, in addition to the Japanese seed beads and Czech pressed glass flowers, I also put in some rose quartz beads to complement the dusky pink Swarovski pearls.
The photo doesn't do this piece justice -- the bracelet actually sparkles in the light.

That's such a work of art, babe =) It looks difficult to do... and great to wear. Hahaha!
I can imagine how pretty the necklace will be!
This is beautiful. Is it for sale? Excuse me for being so direct.

Mamimoo ~ Hugs to you!! Thanks so much, sweetie :) It really isn't difficult to do, thanks to the clear instructions :)) It does take some time, though, and the beads are teeny tiny! HAHAHHA!
Chev ~ You're a DARLING!!! I owe you something and will drop you an e-mail about it :))
Alice ~ Thanks for thinking the bracelet is beautiful! Your compliment made my day :)) Neither Autumn Flowers nor Spring Flowers is on sale for now as I need to get permission from the original artist as these bracelets are based on her design and instructions. I'll definitely let you know if/when permission is granted :)
wah another new line for blingalicious. congrats!
Don't worry about it:) I want to give you enough space for your creative juices to flow;P
Simone .. love this pretty design! I hope Lynn gives you permission. If not, I do believe you can think up variations with those pretty flowers and colours. I shall be watching. Dannika. xx
