handmade bracelets

This bracelet is named after the friend who shall be receiving it for Christmas. I haven't made jewelry since using pony beads as a child, but I'm quite satisfied in how this turned out. So much so that I almost don't want to give it up! ;)
To make, I used fishing line and strung a mix of vintage, seed and glass beads, and attached a lobster claw closure (because I find those are easiest to open and close). I think I've figured out what else to give those friends who I'm not quite sure what to give them!

A second bracelet made and named after a friend for Christmas using colors she enjoys. Again, I used the same methods to make it, using vintage and glass beads.
