Two Fall Bracelets xx

Here are two of my most recent fall bracelets that have dodged major overhauls/re-jigging (don't know about you but my bracelets and bead box are in shambles at this time of year!!). the second one is my fav... the the top combo w/the babytroll is okay stacked but feels too cool-toned for me on its own...not sure how to warm it up...it's about to get the ax!! xx

On the color wheel, lavender and yellow compliment each other. There's quite a bit of lavender in bracelet 1. Can you add a yellow and lavender or yellow and orange bead? It might look warmer. Or what about changing out the sapphire bead for a yellow green one?
I just love the spider on fall bracelets. Its so perfectly natural.

It´s good to see the four small frogs and the waterlilis - two of my favorits! Great fall combos!

They are both fabulous and I especially like them stacked together - very autumnal

Exactly what I thought....the two stack together beautifully. Really unique color choices, well done!

Very, very nice - seeing these makes me want to go fine tune my Halloween combo and spark it up a bit - I like the looks of yours!

The bright colours match the blue sky today and remind me of the autumn leaves and berries Maybe some orange beads on the top one, but I like it as it is

I completely love them as they are,
love the colours of the 1st bracelet, the 2nd one is quite extraordinary, to combine the panda with the blue glitter bead and the spider, I would never have tried that, it proves to me, unusual combinations do work and the next bracelet I am doing, I will try to do something in that direction,
they must look gorgeous when worn together!

Both of your bracelets are adorable! But I have to say that I am totally in love with the second bracelet. I very much like the beads that you have put together for creating this colorful and striking combo!!!

I agree with Cat - both are wonderful and unexpected and because of that even more precious!

I agree with what many have said...I think they both work alone or together, but they are FABULOUS together

very beautiful combos.

Thanks for the suggestion, Gail. I like the idea of yellow green or orange to it up

I see you got the frogs off your list he can be hard to combine for me, idk why...think its b/c he's textured but also sort of smooth so it throws off my usual method or something idk

Thanks Silverbells and Zaklinz! You are making me think I should leave them alone and wear stacked (it'll be my gym time!)

Hadn't thought of this as Halloween, but you're right. And making this my "spooky" combo solves the problem of only having one spider and not wanting to take him off this one for another bracelet. (Was surprised he worked w/a waterlily     ) Look forward to seeing what you come up w/Mini!!

Love your avatar, btw!!

Maybe the orange will work, Clover. For some reason the purple mosaic tends to make me think of your combos so it must be okay there as it is

WHY CATS (!!) you are my inspiration for trying the unusual, lol, do give yourself some credit bahahahaha! Built this around the panda and the turtle...there's a kind of funny story if you don't mind the telling..

got the spider and blue glass from this "mystics" shop ... thought w/all the healing crystals and juju powders etc all over the place and meditation music playing that the owner would be the most positive, lovely person. Well she was the MEANEST sales woman i've ever met in life and to top it off looked nothing like a hippie!! She was so mean I almost didn't buy anything but really wanted that sparkly glitter and "needed" a spider and a couple others. (Sometimes a gal must put pride aside). So that's how this was born...(don't worry, I took some sage to the beads to get rid of her vibes, jk, but only b/c I have no sage.)

...now...wondering if a poor panda or other critter will find its way back to your zoo...

I agree with Catsworld, you are able to combine colors in such an extraordinary way!! Both are lovely
