Bracelet of the Day: Elinor Bracelet - Blue Haze & Pewter

ELINOR BRACELET
  • 15/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Galvanized Pewter" (D4222)
  • 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Galvanized Pewter" (D4222)
  • 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Galvanized Pewter" (D4222)
  • 8/0 seed beads Toho "Higher Metallic Matte Blue Haze" (512F)
  • SuperDuo beads "Pearl Luster"
  • 4mm druks "Opal Light Turquoise"

I think that this might be my all-time favorite "Elinor" bracelet. I bought the "Pearl Luster" SuperDuo beads at a local shop. I haven't seen them anywhere online but it's possible that they go by another name. They're semi-matte metallic in a pewter color. Although the druks are called "turquoise", they're actually a very pale mint green color. I found them in the DrBead Etsy shop.

The "Elinor Bracelet" is a free pattern which you can download from THIS post or from the list of free beading patterns on the right hand side of my blog.

    1. I knew you'd like this one, Teejay. I find that I get a better fit for my wrist when I use fewer druks, especially if I'm using Toho seed beads. I didn't in this one but I like this arrangement of the motifs.
