a going away present

yesterday, i woke up really early hoping to make a bracelet for my mom as a going away present. i also wanted to finish some bracelets and handphone straps for my cousins and aunts. and all this, i wanted to finish by 8am because i wanted to go to the charles&keith warehouse sale before it even opens at 10am. and if there is still time left, i'd also drop by to the giordano warehouse sale.

and of course, i didn't get to go the warehouse sales hahaha but i did finish the bracelets and handphone straps i wanted to do. and the going away present for my mom.

my mom really loved this bracelet. it did looked like a very expensive bracelet.

gold shadow bracelet

if you liked it, give it a try. here are the materials that i used.

2 8mm swarovski faceted round rondelles (crystal golden shadow)
11 5mm swarovski bicone beads (smoky quartz)
32 4mm swarovski bicone beads (light smoked topaz)
24 4mm swarovski bicones (titan coated crystal)
15 3mm swarovski bicones (jonquil)
30-35 seed beads
1 pair silver plated toggle

difficulty level: 3 (based on 1 to 5, with 5 as the highest level of difficulty, meaning very very difficult)

i'm sure, by now, you've already noticed that i am indeed re-using my materials :)
