This is a work in progress...suggestions are welcomed! I LOVE the Mandy Ramsdell bead as the focal, but the rest of the beads are up for discussion Wink

I played with it for a while, starting with two or three glass together, but I had to keep scaling back to fit the right things in. I like it, but I'm not 100% THRILLED with it, so I'd love to hear suggestions for how to improve it.

Unfortunately, the amethyst looks too dark in this photo, but IRL it is much prettier.

You did a wonderful job putting the bracelet together! Love the mandy bead as the focal and then you pulled the colors out using some Trollbeads. I would be proud to wear that bracelet.

I don´t think that there is any need for improvement - it´s a wonderful focal bead (I ´ve never seen them before and I really like its details and colors) and you picked up the different colors very nicely, well balanced.
Beautiful spring combo! (much needed here - it´s cold and snow-raining.....)

What is the red/pink bead that is top left? It looks like it's cut like a gemstone but a little creamier than the ruby. Gorgeous!

That is a TB faceted crazy lace agate that I purchased from a lovely fellow member. I love it too! I can't remember which, but the faceted ones were only released in either the UK or the USA. I think the UK.
