The Bangles

Happy Easter Monday!  These new bangle bracelets evoke the feelings of Spring and its freshness.  Everything is new ... no spent blossoms yet, delicate blooms and leafing, a perfect time of year.  Each bracelet features torch-fired enamel beads, head pins, bead caps, and vintage articles, such as the railway token and the aurora borealis crystal and setting from a vintage pin.  They have a feminine feel with a decidedly rustic touch.  They can be found at my etsy shop.

Lovely Barbara. That green bead looks whimsical with the flower on the under side.

Thanks everybody. These beads were inspired by the movie, Nanny McPhee. I love the colors and patterns in that movie!
