Very nice Zelda!~ I have a friend who makes stunning beaded jewelry, mostly with crystals, The stuff is so gorgeous & she sells tons of it! It turned into a real money maker for her...
Maybe you have a new career ahead of you. If not, always nice to make gifts or things for yourself. She read books on it that she took out of the library & learned to do it herself!
Great job, Zelda!
I'm betting that as soon as you start work on the bracelet you'll also start thinking about your next project after that!

Thanks for refreshing this thread Zelda, because I've been meaning to ask you jewelry makers for some advice.
I bought this bracelet a short while ago to honor Hubby's brother, Chuck. It is an ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) bracelet. It has the ALS colored beads and a baseball glove charm to represent Lou Gehrig. The problem is that there is nothing to stop the beads and charm from falling to the underside of the bracelet; therefore when I have it on it looks like a plain wire bracelet. This photo is taken from the underside; that's why it looks okay in the pic.
My question is, is there something I can apply myself to stop the beads from sliding underneath? I thought of clear plastic earring backs, but the wire is too thick and bent (where it closes) to slide anything onto it. Is there something that I can crimp onto both sides of the beads to keep them on top?
