Wrapped, Stacked & Layered Challenge


Today is the day, that 80 of us will be revealing our Wrapped, Stacked & Layered bracelets!! Our lovely host for this blog hop is Tracey Statler, she has such wonderful inspiration for bracelets and she has a beautiful blog to boot!!  Thank you so much Tracey for hosting this wonderful challenge. 

I love bracelets one of my mandatory accessories, I have been dabbling in creating layered bracelets and I often wear them myself.  I love that you can achieve different textures, materials and colors by crating this effect.  I was behind the eight ball for this challenge and thought I wouldn't get something done so two of the pieces I created earlier and added my third piece.  The leather bracelet includes art beads from Artisan Beads Plus, Gaea and Mamacita Beadworks, the second bracelet has silk from Marsha Neal Studio, blue impression jasper and faceted Czech glass.  The third bracelet that wraps double around a wrist is made from Irish wax linen and ivory bone beads.


Please share some love with the other participates!!!  Have a fantastic Saturday, I can't wait to see what everyone else has created!!


Much love,
Penny

  6. I love the rustic colors and the leather. I have never made a bracelet like that. I think it would be a good way to use the beads I constantly hoard and those buttons! Enjoy the day!
