Hello Again Sunshine!

Honey Bunny Rabbit Bangle BraceletYesterday brought torrential rains and flooding to parts of our area. Our puddles spread out to pondles.  As the sun is shining today, they are beginning to dry up.  Oh well, back to the drawing board, or in this case the jewelry supplies. I pulled out the sweetest 3D bunny rabbit charm in a  silver plated pewter and have the bunny bouncing quite happily now from a sunny honey colored bangle bracelet.

The glass seed beads I used in this piece are just such a lovely golden honey shade and glow with warmth even in low light. The larger round beads are also honey colored, but have a rainbow finish giving off soft glows of blue, peach, pink and green as the light reflects on them.  It reminds me of the colors you see as light hits pooled water.

I have fallen in love with memory wire bracelets since buying one from Cindylouwho2 on Etsy last year. They are so comfortable to wear. There are no clasps to fiddle around with to take the bracelets on and off. You wrap it around your wrist and unwrap to take it off.  Simple!  It holds its shape. Whatever your wrist size, the wire will expand or contract to fit.  If you want to give a bracelet gift, you don’t need to know wrist size.   

There was so much potential for versatility in design, using different sizes and types of beads, number of loops or adding charms or dangles.  I could see these bracelets in delicate feminine sparkly beads, pearls, big bold beads, with just a few loops or with lots of loops to create cuffs.  I could picture layering different ones together on the arm.  I was inspired to order some stainless steel memory wire in silver, gold and copper colors.   Did I say how much I love this wire?

There are several different styles of memory wire bracelets now available in the Rabbittude Etsy shop.

  1. such a cool bracelet! Thanks for linking to my shop, too – I am glad you like the one you bought from me.

    I have been in love with memory wire bracelets for several years now, since my sister bought me one (this was before I was making jewellery again). They really are very versatile, & can be designed to be casual or elegant. Wonderful choices for gifts!
