Aqua and Cherry, Who Knew?

I bought a Universal Unique from my LD a while back because I just LOVED it, but just now found other beads that it would play well together with (Thank you Tatiana Very Happy

).......this is still a work in progress, I think I can do better with some of the darker OOAKS (I'll keep my eye out in the Sell/Swap Section Laughing

)

This is the "Inspiration Universal Unique" (The one hiding behind the Cherry Dillo....she's still a little shy Laughing

)

An amusing anecdote about this bracelet......DH noticed it as soon as he came home from work the day I made it. (FIRST TIME in 4 years he EVER noticed a bracelet I made without me waving it under his nose!!) I was Shocked

SHOCKED

when he commented on how much he liked it!! It ALL made sense when he later told me what it reminded him of...... THIS is what DH thought MY INSPIRATION was based on.....

Your new bead is so lovely together with the cherry dillo and looks stunning on your bracelet.

I love the way one bead can inspire a whole bracelet.

Or one snack food. Laughing

What a funny history! Laughing

The inspiration is everywhere and beauty is in the eye of the beadholder

I love your bracelet and its colors, good job! sunny

Love the inspiration, but love the bracelet more Laughing

That is hilarious!! There are definitely two distinct "organs" men think with...and I don't think I have to tell anyone what they are, but the stomach is definitely ONE Smile

BEAUTIFUL bracelet too! I never would have though to put these colors together either, but it definitely works!!
