SuperDuo Lace Bands - Jade & Brick

SUPERDUO LACE BANDS

• 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• DiscDuo beads "Matte Jade"
• SuperDuo beads "Satin Metallic Brick"

Before making today's bracelet, I made four different samples in this colorway and chose my favorite. Below are the samples along with the bead info for each of them.

• 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• 7mm CzechMates 2-hole cabochons "Turquoise"
• SuperDuo beads "Satin Metallic Brick"

While I liked the shiny finish on the cabochons, I think they are a little too big for this pattern. They caused the seed beads to go all wonky. 

This is the same as today's bracelet.

• 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Light Pewter" (4221)
• 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Light Pewter" (4221)
• DiscDuo beads "Matte Jade"
• SuperDuo beads "Satin Metallic Brick"

This sample is the same as today's bracelet except that I used "Light Pewter" seed beads. I decided not to use them because they are much too bright for the colors of the rest of the beads.

• 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
• Honeycomb beads "Splash Turquoise Green"
• SuperDuo beads "Satin Metallic Brick"

I really wanted to use these cool Honeycomb beads but decided that the copper on them covered up a little too much of the turquoise. You can see it pretty well in my close-up photo but not so much at actual size.
