The generously-sized bail should easily fit on most of the chains that you own. Or maybe you have a black cord, or you’ll buy a piece of satin ribbon and wear it high on the neck for a look that is trés chic!

Perfect for a holiday gift . . . or maybe you’ll keep it for yourself? 😉

To introduce new readers to our blog and new shoppers to our online bead store, we’re sponsoring a drawing for a pre-holiday give-away!!!

Winter Moon Bracelet in Royal Blue and Purple

Winter Moon Bracelet in Royal Blue and Purple

The prize is a beautiful handcrafted bracelet called “Winter Moon” (pictured above).

This bracelet features absolutely gorgeous Czech glass beads, which were made from vintage button molds!

The beads are a fabulous shade of blue – somewhere between cornflower and royal blue. They have a textured design of soft swirls on both sides, and an aurora borealis finish that flashes every color of a pastel rainbow!!

I’ve accented the “button” beads with Swarovski crystals in both tanzanite and burgundy ab x2, and tiny silver-lined glass seed beads.

The bracelet fastens with a very pretty silver-plated “toggle” clasp.

Measurements: approximately 7-1/2″ long, and 1/2″ wide.

It would make a lovely holiday gift, or perhaps you’ll keep it for yourself! 😉
