soft bangle with beads 2660

 Soft cotton hand dyed cord scraps and a few glass beads are used to build this casual slip-on style bracelet. Unlike the one button designs this one is a "squeeze to fit" bangle measuring a generous 8 5/8" (219 mm) inside circumference.

One 12 mm lavender glass bead and five smaller red beads are tightly integrated in the fabric.

two button red beaded clothesline cuff 1620

 Here's another clothesline cord design made with a lot of beads that were rattling around in the bottom of the bead bucket. On the left is a row of random glass beads tucked into the seam between the center ridge and edge. On the other is a row of dark brown wood beads (life is contrasts). On the center of the ridge is a row of glass seed beads which pick up the light.

 Size is medium-small at 7" (180 mm) inside circumference when closed. A two button and loop toggle system ensures easy and secure closure.

You can find this bracelet and other one-of-a-kind fiber and bead bracelets in the design section of my Etsy shop. A larger collection of these unique pieces can be found in the design section my Zibbet shop where there is no expiration date on listings.
