About this design:
Licorice leather bracelets are the craze. I have seen them on the browsing the I do learning and finding new jewelry ideas. This particular bracelet is my first piece with the Regaliz licorice leather.
Components:
Regaliz navy blue distressed leather with the focal slider bead from Desert Bug Design. These sliders are custom made to fit the Regaliz leather. I followed up with the silver Regaliz findings in silver. The clasp is magnetic. The rubber O rings are made for this type of bracelet to serve two functions. First and foremost, to hold everything in its place. Second, is to add color to your design. For my very first piece...not bad.Additional Images:
