My weekend,

Was extremely pleasant.

I talked to almost no one, which - after the week I had - was pretty much close to heaven.

I cleaned, did laundry, went grocery shopping, went to my local bead store, went to the farm stand, wrote (a little), and after much trial and error, made this:



How was YOUR weekend?

The (necklace? bracelet? I can't judge the scale) is gorgeous. I love that shade of green.

[elrhiarhodan]

Thank you!

It's a bracelet, and it is one of my favorite colors - olivine. It feels very autumnal.

What are the small beads? I can imagine that bracelet with hematite beads, but in the photo they seem to have an old-bronze tint.

The beads are mostly Czech glass (all the green ones) and the tiny gold-colored beads are Japanese seed beads, and the color is "light bronze" - one of my favorite (and most used) beads.

That's really, really gorgeous!!

And that sounds like a totally delightful weekend to me, too!!

[elrhiarhodan]

Thank you so much.

It's honestly my favorite type of weekend - just relaxing, no need to be social or anything stressful.

[sherylyn]

I totally, completely agree with you. I'm perfectly happy to just exist in my own little bubble and enjoy some quiet-ish down time!!

Sounds like a pretty great weekend. And I love the bead work!

[elrhiarhodan]

It was an awesome weekend.

And thank you so much.

And that's almost exactly how I spent my weekend, minus the creation of that amazing piece. I love it! And I am in awe of your multi-talent! ♥

[elrhiarhodan]

Thank you!

That's so pretty! I love the pearlescent sheen on the green beads!

[elrhiarhodan]

Thank you so much - it was a fun and frustrating piece to work on, but in the end, I was very pleased with the results.

Sounds like a lovely weekend with a beautiful piece of jewelry to enjoy as a treat.

Thank you, it was certainly a relaxing time.
