Mishmash of colors!! (Pic heavy)

I do not usually wear anything as "LOUD" as this bracelet, but today I decided to try something different. I could not decide on what color(s) I wanted, so I just put a few together, and decided it looked kinda neat, so I kept it...LOL I also have a few of my favorite artisian beads that I was hesitating to core because I was afraid of breaking them...I am still not as steady as I used to be and I am making some beads that are not meeting the quality that I "think" I need to have..Also included are gemstones that I cored myself. When I sat down to photo, I used some of Neonfiller's fabulous tips that she shared with us to see if I could improve my photography abilities....jury is still out on that, but I thought I'd share anyway. I am open to constructive criticism!!! I tried to get close-ups of the artisian beads...still need practice on that!

I like a lot of color, so this bracelet looks great to me!

I really like the gnome...I hope I can get one eventually.

Is your clear crystal one of yours? Beautiful!

SPEECHLESS .... I love every bead on this combo and your placement of them is spectacular ... LOVE LOVE IT!!!

This is a " Happy Day " combo, Trolldog !
Great stones and lovely artisan glass beads

Sorry to hear you're not quite back up to speed, TD. But it sounds like definite progress! I definitely want to order some of your Beadbuddies stone beads, but want to wait til you're doing better and have cleared your backlog of orders. No hurry, no pressure!

What's the stripey beige/white bead two to the right of Gnome?

Thank you all for your kind comments!!!

kitsunegrl - Yes, the crystal quartz is one I cored.

LindaJo - Thank you for your interest in my beads. The bead you asked about is actually a spiro glitter artisian bead...see I need to get better on my photographing...I did not get that one clear. It is white with gold glitter in it.

I am making away on orders today. I hope to get caught up soon! If my hand would hold up, I could do better!!!

TG that is gorgeous, I love the combo of stones and glass.

Rich in texture, color, and beauty! Well done!!

Hi Trolldog,

I'm happy to hear that you're hand is slowly improving. Healing can be a slow, slow process.

I love your bracelet. It's not "loud" by my standards. It comes together just right.

Ok, TD, now that you say it, I can see that the stripey bead has golden glitter in it. Do you remember who made it?

Yes, she is on ebay and she goes by planetbeads...something...I will have to go back and look for the rest of her ebay name. She has some beads up for auction right now. I love the size of her beads. I have quite a few of them.

Thank you again everyone for the compliments!!!

Okay, I think you've mentioned her before, I have one of her beads on my watchlist. Thanks, TD.
You add your own cores to her beads?

Very beautiful! Even though you have included several colours TD, the result is elegant and harmonious - it is not 'loud' (not that there's anything wrong with that ). I see some very beautiful and interesting gemstones which I guess are your own work - they are lovely.

Smashing
love the colours, just great!

Wowie, gorgeous bracelet with really awesome beads!! Especially love the spiro glitter en the blue bead on the second photo

I'm so in love with the dark blue and dark red stone, they are just gorgeous.

I like the round shape of the red one (ruby?)
It's a beautiful combo , I wouldn't call it "loud',but mature.

I love it...fantastic bracelet..don't over do it trying to catch up Trolldog.

Stunning! cheerful combo.I love it and your crystal is GREAT

This is a great combo!!! Is there anyway you could list her ebay name (or PM me) her info? Thanks!

This is one of her auctions. You can request beads from her, and if you are interested in the spiros, I am happy to "try" and get you a good pic to send her. She is a really nice person!!! I think she is in Germany.

Gorgeous beads!! Love the quartz!

I am so match-ie, match-ie and that is getting a little boring to me... I love this... I have some new inspreation to try... love the bracelet....!!!
