"Often the simple designs
are the best. At least that’s what I think. One of my favorite patterns to

beads. For these two bracelets I used a matte black bead for the “frame” and
transparent blue and purple beads with an AB (Aurora Borealis) coating. It’s
a shame it gets washed out a little in the scan. In person these bracelets
have a kind of depth to them, almost as if you could look into the glass."

Is this bracelet done on a loom or peyote stitch?
peyote stitch
Thanks so much for sharing this simple but very effective pattern Sandra. I can't wait to make it! It'll be a good test of my newly learned Peyote stitch skills.
I think this bracelet is absolutely beautiful. I'm fairly new to peyote and have to admit this pattern is beyond my abilities right now. A great project to shoot for
