Bubble gum bracelet

I'm more into accessorizing my outfits these days than I have been in the past, so I made myself a bracelet to go with my Easter outfit. I have a couple of containers of beads out on the floor of my craft room/office and I kept seeing these colorful beads. They kept just screaming at me to be made into something to go with my Easter outfit since they matched so well.


And no, it's not made of bubble gum, but these ceramic beads remind me of bubble gum. This was a really quick project. Simply attach beading string to one half of a toggle clasp with a crimp, string on beads and spacers, and attach the end to the other half of the toggle clasp with a crimp. I used white glass beads, ceramic colored beads, silver spacers, and some plastic berry beads that have been in my stash since my days of ornament making (10 years ago!). All of the beads came from Michael's and the spacers came from Joann's.


Thanks for stopping by, and a quick shout out to my new followers. I've noticed that little number climbing a bit lately. Thanks for following along. You can also follow my blog and my shop news on Facebook.

  6. I just started a linky party this past Tuesday. It was a great success with over 50 link ups! I would love it if you would participate next week! It's called $10 Tuesdays and it's for things that cost less than $10 and take 20-30 mins (ish) to complete. I love inexpensive and quick projects and I'm guessing others will too ;) Thanks so much for considering.
