Pastel Crystal Bracelet, Rose Quartz and Serenity Beaded Charm Bracelet

Thanks to “spring cleaning”, this pastel crystal bracelet was created. 

I was cleaning my bead stash and noticed I have a lot of clear and light crystals and that I have not used for a long time in my pieces. Cleaning forgotten, I started playing with the beads and was thinking whether I should go all out on the whites or have another color to partner with it.  In the process, Pantone 2016 color came to mind; Rose Quartz and Serenity. 

                                                                      

Now, I decided to choose the lightest spectrum of the Pantone color, so the palest pink and blue.  I wanted the clear crystals to be the host and the pink and blue the guests.  This will be an airy, ephemeral color palette.

I started wire wrapping a mixture of transparent and translucent crystals (rose quartz, Chinese crystals and Swarovski Elements) in pale pink, light blue, clear and milky white beads.  I was experimenting between silver or antique bronze wires but decided to go with the antique bronze.  The antique bronze wire gives a nice contrast with the pale and light beads.  

I am very happy on how the cool light sky blue and warm soft pale pink crystals cast a haze of color and play up the variety of shape and texture onto the mix of clear and frosted multi faceted beads for this wire wrapped crystal bracelet.

How this crystal bracelet sparkles and shines beautifully with the light! I love how the beads appear to dance with the light. Now it would be just grand if I could capture that in my photos.

I was going over to my Etsy shop to list this bracelet but I am happy to say it has already found a new home.

You may notice that I am going through the beaded charm bracelet phase.  Just needed some fun, movement and easy to make pieces for now.

And not forgetting, I have yet to finish my cleaning of my bead stash......
