Purple Seed Bead Netted Bracelet

This week I completed another netted cuff bracelet. These netted bracelets are a lot of fun to make and they are quick to do. This time I used irridescent light purple beads in size 11/0. It measures 7.5" long and 1.25" wide. I made a matching beaded ball and loop closure with 2 silver crystal faceted beads. The finished look is very lacy and delicate. You can find it in my Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/BEadArtistic for $27.

Pink Seed Bead Netted Bracelet

I've put off posting a little longer than usual but I wanted to wait until I had a fully completed project to show.

I actually finished this last week but I only just took the pictures last night. My pictures still aren't the greatest. I am obviously not a professional photographer. I think I will wait until a sunny day and try to take pictures outside in natural lighting. I do have a cool light box for taking photographs but they are still turning out darker than I like. Probably because I only have dim lighting inside my house. Also I think the jewelry will photograph better if I get some pretty props for display. But for now this is the best I have.

I tried out a new bead weaving technique called netting stitch. It is a lacy looking stitch so I decided to use pale pink transparent beads in size 11/0. The result is very pretty and delicate. To finish it off I made my own beaded clasp with 2 matching pink crystal beads. It measures approximately 7 inches long.

I also have supplies to make a matching twin bracelet with purple iridescent beads instead of the pink.
