Choosy Chix Choose Chicklets

I have been an unabashed fan of suebeads since we were paired in a bead swap years ago,( & yes, it WAS as fabulous as it sounds!). So when Rita was giving away some of Sue's beads, I had to throw my hat in the ring. Rita then went above & beyond & EVERYONE who signed up got a chicklet!

I loved my chicklet, but nothing really seemed to click w/ it?
 Then one weekend afternoon I saw an episode of  Beads, Baubles & Jewels where tigertail was used to connect to leather to findings. I modified the design by just using a thinner leather lace.

The clasp is a simple hook, ( Thnx, LMAJ ) that I adore & use for everything.
The beads are free floating . It's light & easy to wear. I also plan on stacking it w/ lots of other bracelets.
Many Thanks to our hostess, Rita. Enjoy your hopping !

    I really love this! I have been creating stack bracelets lately...just love the look and so much versatility and fun. Your design is so simple and elegant and fun at the same time! I also love it's dainty design and that you left the beads free float :)

    My first thought at seeing the rich purple of your bead was that it would look great with black and silver! I think your bracelet is a close match (although I can't tell for sure if the leather is black or dark brown. It would be great either way!) I love the simplicity of your bracelet. I love stacking on layers of bracelets too and this one is classy, simple to put on, and unique. Love it!

    Simple and chic! Love your bracelet. It's perfect for stacking, and so pretty! I was inspired by Beads, Baubles & Jewels too for one of the weekend's blog hops, also! Isn't that fun? That show is great & I was delighted with the synchronicity I had when a show suddenly got me going with an idea, too. Anyway, your bracelet is beautiful! Love the clasp -- so creative & the colorway is rich, wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your jewelry art talents! You are a wonderful artist! A star of the show :)
    Hapy Hopping, xxoo Rita

    Hello, I really enjoyed this blog, and thank you for sharing it. I’m a big fan of chicklets, so I used to wear them at university. Eventually, I started a business related to them to earn some money. However, when my dissertation work became incomplete, I was stressed because I couldn’t manage both university and my business. I searched for who could write my dissertation and found PayForDissertations, which was very helpful. It allowed me to complete my dissertation and continue running my business.
