Pretty as a Peacock Wire Wrapped Bracelet
About this design:
I sold a few of these at the last show I attended so I thought I'd do a few more. They are so nice and light to wear, they are adjustable and you can make them with virtually any type of crystal or gemstone! It was really hard to get the camera to focus on what I wanted it to focus on, so the pictures aren't all that good...
Components:
Silver Fill Wire ~ 20g & 24g, Faceted Peacock Glass CrystalsAdditional Images:
