So finally the sun has graced us with her presence today and it seems that even this winter will come to an end after all... sunny It made me get out my green leather bracelet and try something springlike, although it ended up somewhat simple, I'm afraid.

If you want to try this, just wind your leather bracelet twice around the wrist as usual, then just as you're about to close it, thread the end below the first loop for as many times as you like (take care you do not end up with a tourniquet though, you still want to close it!). I managed two turns with the green leather, and just one with my new yellow-pink,which I think I bought too short...

And if one had four hands, or maybe a friend to help, one could try even wilder twists and knots, I'd love to try that. Good use for a leather that has gone too long with use!

beautiful! I really love the leathers, still have to buy one of the new ones but can't decide which...
your chess lock has found the place where it looks as if it was made only for that purpose!
All so beautiful! sunny

Wonderful looks with the leathers! I especially like the green/gold version.

I'm afraid I am totally stumped with mine. I just have one black one, but I never wear it and no matter what combo I make with it, it just doesn't satisfy me.

This is very inspirational though!

I like how you twisted the green leather and how it lays on your wrist. I think I have to play with my leather bracelet some more.

The yellow one looks very nice, fit for spring. I also like the green gold combination Smile

The green bracelet is perfect as you you are showcasing some spectacular gold!

Good choices for the new leather, too!

I have the denim blue leather. The only thing I wear with it is my Kimono kit with an additional pearl.

Love the green and gold combo, the dichroic glass in the three flowers is just perfect Love
