I love this pretty colorway. This blue is a relatively new color and I'm starting to see more and more kinds of beads in this color. It's the same color as the 2-hole cabochons that I used to make the "Demoiselle" bracelet that I blogged about HERE. I also have SuperDuos in this color but I'm not sure if I've used them to make anything yet. The color also goes by the name "Satin Metallic Arctic Blue".
You can buy Akke Jonkhof's gorgeous "For Your Eyes Only" bracelet pattern in her Etsy shop, HERE. Queen City Bead on Etsy has ZoliDuos as well as IrisDuos. My blog readers get a 10% discount by using the code "Bead10".
Baubles & Beads will close for good on November 1st. Between now and then, everything is 60% off.
I will miss Baubles & Beads. I always liked them.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for blogging about my For you eyes only Bracelet. I love the colors you used for this version of the bracelet
ReplyDeleteHi Akke. It's such a pretty design. I made another colorway yesterday and hope to take the photos later today.
DeleteWhat size jump ring do you use to go thru the 8/0 and clasp component?
ReplyDeleteI used a 5mm jump ring on the bracelet above. I always use 4mm and/or 5mm jump rings for my clasps and I'm pretty sure that they're about 20 gauge or maybe slightly higher. I buy them from China and they don't list the gauge.
DeleteThank you so much!!
