Have been working on this style of bracelet for a few months. Think my macramé skills have finally returned. Next, I will try one with round or rectangular stones. Maybe one with a large, focal stone bead and smaller ones flanking it. Might try using a twisted half hitch in places. Stones in this one are Quartz, Amethyst, Sodalite, Green Aventurine, Tigers Eye, Red Agate, and Red Jasper. There are wooden beads on the ends. The stone beads were purchased, but I needed to run them through a polish cycle in tumbler, as they were pretty rough.

That's a nice looking bracelet Beth! I'm assuming the stones are drilled...

It sold last night. Someone was interested and said they would be back. By the time they got back, it was gone. I told them I would make another. Guess I know what I will be doing during my upcoming days off work.

Finished 2 more. Both customers wanted the rectangular/square stones.

I need to make one of these for myself. Just would have to shorten the adjustable ends. Mine would have a focal stone and thinner side stones. No way I could have some long areas hanging on my wrist at work.

Six more are finished. Will have them at an upcoming small business craft fair on May 11th. I am now out of the rocks, so will start focusing on wire wraps.

I don’t know if you’re willing, and it’s fine if you’re not, but I’d love to buy one and pay shipping. Plus a few bucks for your trouble. If you need them for your show, I completely understand! Out of curiosity, how much are you selling them for?? I would love one! $20.00
