AJ Bracelet

Every time I sit down to design a piece of jewelry, I always have some type of blueprint in my mind. Usually it  changes a few times as I am working on the piece, but for the most part the end result is generally how I imagined. So it is so crazy to me when a piece almost takes over and designs itself. I know it sounds strange, but that is exactly what happened with AJ.

This piece is made from six strands of nylon coated flexible wire. I used Czech glass beads, which means each bead has two holes rather than one, so I ended up with three strands total once the piece was done. In my mind, each strand would lie straight, but when I finished, all three were rather intertwined. And I can honestly say I love it so much more this way than the boring way I first imagined it. It has an entirely different look than I initially pictured, and I think it is absolutely elegant and beautiful. This piece sells for $12.00.
