Neat Beaded Bracelet


I'm the first to admit that I am probably the only jeweler on earth who knows nothing about beading. I can fabricate, forge, weld, solder, form, pierce, and otherwise manipulate metal. I love the spirit of DIY in general...but I am intimidated by the art of beading. Ridiculous, I can hear your say! Well, it's true. However, luckily there are projects which even I can get my head around. I recently found this cool one in The Detroit News: a twisted beaded bracelet designed by Kathy Mamat set with grape-like bunches of beautiful beads of all kinds. Mamat learned beading from a local supply store, and turned her passion into her profession by teaching classes of her own. Some of her designs can be found in Beader's Stash: Designs from America's Favorite Bead Shops as well as beading magazines...and you can see why.

The directions for making this arresting yet simple bracelet can be found here.
