Encircle Bracelet


A coming together of textured and shaped pieces....

I recently sent this solid Sterling Silver and Tiger eye bracelet to an artist friends shop, "BOTINICALS ", in Fredericton, NB.

The name of his shop is a play on words... as he makes flowers from tin...

$325.00

The tigers eye and silver together are beautiful in this amalgam of shapes. Gorgeous!

Cute name of his store too.

BTW, you've inspired me to get some watercolor paper and get the watercolors out.

The things you do the work you show and your photography is nice as it always is. I will comment more at another time as I just returned from hospital and am not back to normal.

Thank you, my dear

Oh, isn't it beautiful!

The Canon Powershots are supposed to be GREAT, and I think you'll have a blast with it. I've seen beautiful results.

Wish I were close enough to take classes/lessons with you.

This bracelet is a delight for the senses! I like all the shapes and the hammered texture. Great name for your friends shop boTINicals, very clever!

Thanks Diane and Anet,
Wish I had more time to make the "one-of" jewelry but my regular lines take up most of my time. I may post something about them soon.

Ruth, I think you could teach the lessons... I've been playing (when I should have been working) with it all day ... trial & error to see what does what...
John and I already went through the batteries that came with it. Good thing we picked up some rechargeables. So many dials to remember to turn and press and poke and shift... my brain is a blur... but some pictures are turning out...
Now if i could just get a good shot of those crows that are eating treats on the front lawn..

Rechargables, yes, get lots. Within a year you will know your camera and what it can do. It's just so fun.

Hey girlfriend, AWESOME bracelet! Hope you have been well... I've missed talking to you! Looks like Spring is finally in your beautiful region, too; I envy your ability to walk along the beach and watch the ocean. Hope to talk to you soon, K.
