Busy Busy as a Bee

I had a bunch of time (meaning more than 1 hour) to myself the other night (WOOHOO!) and I was able to get some serious studio time in. I decided that I would create a bracelet to fit into a contest theme for an Ebay group that I am a member of (Tranquil Beading Oasis) AND I made a ring for my best friend.

The bracelet (this picture really sucks) is a "rainbow" bracelet featuring handmade beads made from swarovski crystals. I put it all together and added black onyx andsterling silver to balance the vibrant colors.

The ring is based off of a sterling ring I made with the same design. She wanted it made in copper so I used black seed beads, green aventurine, lapis lazuli, and tiger eye beads.
