I see Artbeads has a few other designs of this kit, so I know my next order will include at least one - I especially like this black agate design.
On to the crystals, pearls, and xilion components. For some reason, a lattice design was spinning through my head. I had done some netting before, making ball ornament covers, but never in a piece of jewelry.
I like the way it looks on and it feels good too. And the ring matches :) The sterling silver clasp can be fastened with one hand! Yippee! I was hoping it could. It's a really nifty design, in that there are two 'push buttons' on the ends that release the clasp. I love how the clasp is seamless when connected and it is very secure.
Meghan flipped when she saw it - for some reason she just loves this bracelet. I guess coming from a 16-year-old, that says a lot!
Don't forget to check out this week's Beading for a Cure auctions! Hope everyone has a good day/evening! See you soon.

the ring came out really neat. i'm always a little intimidated by the kits, because i'm not sure if i know the stitches that will be required. do they give instructions on that? the bracelet is gorgeous! i love your selection of spring beads. beautiful work!
Love the ring especially. I'm a ring nut. I'm off to check out the other ring kits.
I think everyone rushed over there without leaving a comment....the kits are gone!
Love the ring Lynn! You didn't waste any time getting these beauties done either! The bracelet is definitely Springy, both in color and design. I am completely in love with Artbeads! I can thank you for that! Hugs!!
Oh wow, these are both great designs!! Looking at these makes me want to stitch! :) Thank you for your kind words, by the way :) -Lisa
Hello Lynn,
The ring you created is gorgeous! Ok, we don't have Spring season here but reading and hearing people describe it - I too agree it is the perfect thing to wear. Then again, not only for one season but whole year round. :-)
SO sad it took me long to visit again, but there are just things in life that happens and you get caught up with it. I;m starting to catch up!
Mizpah,
Li
