Things I made: bracelets and rings

October has been a fairly crazy month for me. Lots of employment but little time for play! Here are a few things I've squeezed in some time to make...

 
 
Chocolate brown leather double wrap bracelet for Tam. Czech crystal beads, brown leather, and shell button.

 
Silver spacers in brown leather double wrap bracelet. Silve flower button closure. (also for Tam!)

Another turquoise wire wrapped ring (silver). These have apparently been popular! One for Sydney and one up for grabs...

 
Pink irridescent square bead with silver wire wrapped ring. The photos just don't do the colour justice but I think this is really pretty! I also experimented here with thinner wire (22 guage vs 20) and it did give a more delicate finish despite being a bit finnicky to work with!
