dolllady aka Pam says:I’m beginning to use random beads in bracelets. In that way they will go with more colors.

Crystal Canary says:Those multi-colored Czech fire-polished beads are so yummy & fun. The turquoise/yellow ones would go great with the Unicorne Arctic Bee drops.

Little Round Chick says:Great design and those multi color vintage Czech beads make wonderful bright spots of color. The random shapes, sizes and colors make this a versatile bracelet that can be worn with almost anything.
