Some New Baubles!

I'm in trouble. I have another new obsession. Scratch the domino pendants. I'll come back to those later!

A few weeks ago, I goofed up and bought the wrong kind of wire. It turned out to be memory wire for making bracelets. I thought about taking it back, but it was so cheap, I decided not to bother. Save it for a rainy day! So last week, I was in a bead shop in Tempe that I'd heard about to look for some little charms and the right kind of wire. They had an unbelievable selection of beads, so I couldn't resist buying some and making something with my mistake!

This is just a small selection of the bracelets I've made. I guess my friends and relatives will be getting bracelets for Christmas! (I haven't come up with a man bracelet yet.)

My favorites ended up being the bracelets I made from the leftover beads. In other words, there's a pile of beads with no plan and can I make something with those! I love this little red, blue, and silver number.

This was another bracelet made from the leftover beads. I'm keeping this one for myself!

I made a few of these as little Christmas bracelets to give as gifts.

And here was the final leftover bracelet. Since I still have some memory wire and the beads are 40% off at Beads Galore this weekend -- hmmmmmmmm. May have to fire up my Beetle and get back there!

P.S. You wouldn't believe how crowded that place was yesterday at 3:00 p.m. I think I've joined a new cult!
