Gemstone Bead and Sterling Silver Tube Bracelets

On a recent trip I purchased a bracelet because it was pretty and uniquely designed.  Upon returning home I inspected the bracelet further and realized that it was fairly simple to make .Also I had most of the supplies in my craft room.  I changed the look of the bracelets a bit to make use of the supplies I already had. The above bracelets are the result of a few hours of work. The gemstones I used were chrysoprase, turquoise, agate, jasper, and amazonite. I am happy with the way the bracelets turned out and I feel the changes I made improved the bracelet's design.  I used a silverplated medium super flexible beading wire which made the bracelets quite a bit more flexible than the original. Because my silver tube beads were a bit shorter than the original ones, I had to add extra silver ball beads. I think this addition worked well with the overall look of the bracelets making the design more cohesive.  Because this bracelet style was so easy and pleasing, I'm sure I'll be making more of them in the future and selling them in my Hilo HM BFC locker box. Please come and take a look!
