White Flower Bracelet, Bohemian Bracelet, Boho Chic


I originally started on making a bracelet of white flower in a row....but that didnt quite work.    Will have to sit and re-think it.  So I decided for something a little simpler.

This white flower bracelet was inspired by my love for bohemian jewelry.  I love making bohemian bracelet as bohemian for me, means a style that is free spirited.   Nothing has to match.  Boho chic fashion always reminds me of the 1960s -1970s flower child fashion. When hippiedom and psychedelia were at their peak.    I love the casual, relaxed lifestyle it reflected. 


I realized, for this design, I wanted muted colors and the oval Czech Preciosa lavender beads and pale orange cats eye pairs  beautifully with the off white polymer clay flower bead.  The beautiful white flower was purchased from an amazing artisan, Elaine, from Canada who uses polymer clay to make little pieces of art.   For a splash of color, I added a darker purple,  red and brown wooden beads.  The metallic bronze leaf charms gives the nature inspired bracelet a little drama.
This boho chic beaded bracelet is available in my Etsy shop now.




White little flower swaying with the breeze
Laughed with joy with the sun
Danced happily with the rain
Gazed longingly at the Moon
Dreamed with the twinkling stars
Happy she was, this little white flower....

Flower bracelet, Colorful bracelet, Multi Color Bracelet

 My daughter saw these acrylic flowers while I was making my “Spring is Here” bookmark series.  She loved the colors and asked whether I could make her a bracelet with it.  Of course, I would make one for my baby - and I must say that the flower bracelet is as colorful as a Spring bouquet




I wanted the flowers to lay flat against the wrist and getting it to lay flat needed some adjustment.  I could not use the normal wire wrapping and I did not like the way the cord laid across the flowers.  After several ideas were thrown into the bin, I finally like how this bracelet turns out.




As the flowers are acrylic, this colorful bracelet is super lightweight and fits comfortably on the wrist.


And I am glad to say that this multi color bracelet has been seen on her wrist on many occasions.

Black Pearl Bracelet, Swarovski Elements Charm Bracelet

I am a lover of the color black; no other color can be so elegant and classy.   Like this black pearl bracelet, it gives any ensemble a chic, sophisticated finish.


Unlike the other pink and blue pearl charm bracelet, I love the combination of Swarovski pearls and crystals in this Swarovski bracelet.  It is truly a match made in heaven. Do I hear any angels singing……?  :D




I used varying sizes of the crystal and pearls and wire wrapped them along a gunmetal plated chain.  A trio of shimmering crystal pave adds a subtle sparkle in this cluster bracelet.



An easy to fasten oval gunmetal toggle clasp secures this charming Swarovski Elements charm bracelet.  


This black beauty is now listed in my Etsy shop.

Pearl Charm Bracelet, Swarovski Pearl Bracelet, Heart Charm Bracelet

I am going gaga over pearl charm bracelets at the moment. After my daughter’s charm bracelet, I wanted a simply sweeter version.  Hence, this Swarovski pearl bracelet creation…..




 I chose Swarovski crystal pearls for their beautiful luster and sparkle for this pearl bracelet.  The glossy petrol, sweet powder rose and lavender colors were perfect for the soft feminine look of this cluster bracelet.






I added several silver plated heart charms with fleur de lis design and small heart drops for some drama.  You know how we ladies love our heart motifs as hearts have always been associated with love and affection.  
To complete the heart charm bracelet, I secured it with a lovely silver plated rose toggle clasp.




 To top it all off, a gothic heart charm was added to the end of this Swarovki Elements bracelet.

You can find this pearl jewelry at my Etsy shop.





Now, you might be wondering why these two photos are so different from the first two.  Well, these two photos were taken with my Photojojo Foldio; a foldable lightbox, which I purchased some time ago and I am still struggling with it.  I am not that happy with how the photos turned out.  What do you think?
