Millefiori Stars in the Wild
30-04-08
I have discovered I am a complete sucker for metal spacer beads. I fell in love with these little clear flowery stars too and just had to have some to play with. Stiff beading wire, light weight and large toggle clasp do not a good combination make, unless one likes finding one's bracelet on the floor, the floor of the car and being held onto one's wrist with just the safety pin you stuck on there after it fell off the first two times. Shame, that toggle matched the spacers as well.

Photography is not my forte but playing in the garden was fun. I made the bracelet/earring set to wear to a wedding a few weeks back, no one knew I'd made it but no one said it looked crap either so that's a good sign. I've been looking for a use for that tiny toggle ever since it arrived in the post, I think it's found it's place in the world (and no, this one didn't come undone :) )

Rather like this one, I've discovered I'm a complete sucker for charm bracelets and toggle clasps.

I wear this one all the time. I know silver plate doesn't last forever so I plan to rebuild it in sterling when that time comes.
