On Saturday I showed you my Ever-Evolving Spiral necklace, which had some "fringe" in the form of Rizos in the center. I mentioned that a bracelet full of Rizos might be neat, so today I stitched one using crystal beads for the core, black Super Duos and seed beads for the spirals, and matte crystal AB Rizos for the fringe. I don't really know if "fringe" is the right word, but that sounds better than "pokey-out bits" does.
Here's the bracelet:
Not too bad, considering what materials I had in my stash. I think I'd like it better if the core was the same color as the Rizos. I have some of that color but not enough for a full bracelet. Also, the Super Duos don't stand out very much. That might be okay, but I'm curious how it would look if I had white (or the same white as the Rizos) on either side of the Super Duos. I don't have any 11/0s of that color, or I would have tried that.
I think it's really cute. What do you think?
There's just one more week left in my giveaway. Don't know about it? Click here.
