Triple bracelet

I recently got an order for a triple bracelet in spring-summer colours. Since the Buyer chose bronze colours for the clasp, the colours turned out more spring-summer-autumn, but they were completely approved :) My pleasure!
And this is the bracelet itself:

A kitty, because kitties are the best in the world and the clasp was hidden in my stash for some time, waiting for its moment :D I used Toho beads in size 11/0 and colours Silver Lined Lemon, SL Frosted Olivine and Inside Color Lt Jonquil/Apricot.

Blues

I have just finished an order for my cousin, who is going to a wedding party in a light green dress. I cannot wait to see photos :)
Ropes are simple, but they come together so prettily! Check this tree versions:

I think I like third the most.
And some close-ups on clasps...
Bracelet:

Necklace:

Crocheted ropes made with Toho Round in 11/0 size and colours: Transparent Frosted Medium Aquamarine, TF Cobalt and Ancient Matte Snowcloud (I simply adore that name :D).
Clasps silver-coated (bracelet) and in silver colour (necklace).
Now it's time to go back to dragonmaking :3

Some random creations

Beside creating things that come straight out of my head, I sometimes do things to order of my family and friends. Lately they're mostly earrings:

 Tiger's eye cabochon wrapped in Toho 11/0 and 15/0 in Transparent Olivine and Silver Lined Topaz colours. Silver pins.
Still awaiting the meeting with future owner :)

Red jaspers wrapped in Toho 11/0 and 15/0 in Opaque Jet and O Cherry colours. Spikes also silver.

Yellow howlite cabochon, wrapped in Toho 11/0 Opaque Frosted Dandelion and 15/0 T Green Grass. I was thinking Aztec, but my friend renamed them "turtles" :)

And a bracelet in my favourite O Frosted TerraCotta:

Ordinary seed beads in steel colour and silver-coloured metal elements.

More frosted bracelets

I constantly feel like I don't have enough shaded strings...
Last ones I bought: pink and grey.

And since my sister nicked the blue bracelet, I made a new one. With a special charm:

All bracelets made with Toho Round seed beads 8/0 in Transparent Crystal or Transparent Frosted Crystal. Metal, silver-coloured elements, charms 10 mm in diameter with nail polish :)

Spring and Japan

I am quite sentimental about Japan and Japanese motives, and especially so about cherry blossom:

I admit, it was my first pattern made with jbead app and I'm quite proud with myself.
If anyone is interested in it, I'll happily share :)
Round Toho beads 11/0 in Opaque White, O Jet and TransRainbow Frosted Cherry. Metal elements in silver colour.

Some more bracelets

 Time to show off a little more. Today - crocheted rope bracelets.
I'll start with something in spring colour:

 Tricolour bracelet made with Toho Round 11/0 in Transparent Frosted Lime, TF Dark Peridot and TF Teal colours. The clasp (that has been my inspiration) and all other elements in silver colour. I couldn't help myself, it just got so "spring-y" in the middle of winter :3
To be found here.


Teapot:

One of my favourite Toho Round 11/0 in Opaque Frosted Terra Cotta colour and gold Knorr Prandell beads. Elements in gold colour.
Is here.

And a Swarovski bracelet for dessert:

I fell in love in that spiral pattern, I plan more...
Toho Round 11/0 i 15/0, in Transparent Rainbow, Silver Lined Crystal, Inside Colour Crystal/Snow lined and Opaque Jet colours. Rivioli Swarovski in jet colour, 12 mm. Metal elements in silver colour.

And here is my brave Malina, who has helped in photo making:

Multicolour Shaded Bracelets

POLSKI 

The main idea is not mine - I've been inspired by similar bracelet on Weraph's blog. The frosted, icy look was really fitting for the weather few weeks ago when I've been making them...

I've been testing various bead types and their effects on random cotton twists (from local haberdashery) (I love the word "haberdashery").

Yellow, made with Toho Round 8/0 Transparent Frosted Crystal, with golden glass charm:

Green, made with Toho Round 8/0 Transparent Crystal with green glass charm:

And both of them together:

And blue one with "random" transparent beads in 11/0 size. (Terribly difficult, because I had to pick the beads manually... nevermore! ;) )

All metal elements in silver colour, charms made with glass cabochon, 10 mm size, painted with nail polish on the bottom... Great tutorial can be found HERE.
Practical advice no.1 - nail polish MUST BE dry. So must be the glue. Personally I use glue named Magick (though I have NO IDEA if it can be bought anywhere outside Poland...)
Practical advice no.2 - in case of total failure, Magick glue can be easily removed with nail polish remover. Tested!
Practical advice no.3 - I put cabochon on plasticine, so it doesn't "run away".

All bracelets (except from the blue one, nicked by my sister) are available in my Etsy shop.
I'm planning to buy more cotton twists in various colours... maybe something pink? Strawberry bracelets in the summer?

A bit of fandom jewellery

Today something more in the subject. To begin with, a "Key to the TARDIS" bracelet from the Doctor Who fandom.

Those who know what is what, won't need much explanation. To all the others: TARDIS (or rather T.A.R.D.I.S. - Time And Relative Dimension In Space) is Dr Who's ship - not only to travel in space, but also in time - and it looks like a blue police box because... it has a glitch :D

I used Toho Round 11/0 in Opaque White and Opaque Frosted Navy colours. The charm is 12 mm long with 10mm size cabochon. All metal elements in silver colour.
Can be found here.


And now two versions of Mass Effect themed bracelets. White-red-black colours are used as logo for an elite soldier formation N7, that the main character of the game belongs to.

Simple themed version:

Two versions, with Paragon Wing and Renegade Star. Both can be found here.
Myself, I play Paragon femShep, if anyone's interested :)

And a bit more complex:

The pattern has been created with AMAZING app for crocheted ropes, jbead - easy to use and totally free :3
Both bracelets - in both versions - can be found here.

They've been made with Toho Round 11/0 in Opaque White, Opaque Jet and Opaque Cherry colours. All elements in silver colour.
