WIP Bead Embroidered Cuff Bracelet

Here's a work in progress where I stitched "magic flowers" and partial blossoms along a vine of assorted seed beads. The background is made with wavy lines of turquoise true cuts (size 11-0).


Because bracelets tend to be subjected to everyday abuse, wear and tear, I'll reinforce the sequins again with a separate thread, before I mount the beadwork onto the metal.

  1. I love the flowers that you have created with the sequins. If I ever saw that technique before, it must not have impressed me as much as your design. Very pretty!

  2. Hi Carol -- I don't think I've ever put dimensional sequin work onto a cuff before. We'll see how it holds up. :-)

  3. I absolutely love this cuff! The sequin flowers are amazing.

    When it's finished, do you mind if I feature it on my blog? In fact, I'd love to do a Featured Friday on you in the near future, if ya don't mind. :)
