I was lucky enough to be a recipient once again over on Art Jewelry Elements with their component of the month. This time around it was Niky Sayers who was giving away lovely components - and I was super excited to get this gorgeous clasp (yes, that's not just an old penny - it's a clasp!) to work with. Look at the fat wee wren!
Also (and I'm so impressed I remembered to snap this), just look at this gorgeous tin that it arrived in! How cute is that?
I decided to keep things sweet and simple and reached into my ever-expanding stash of glass flower beads, and came up with this piece. I took my colour cue from the lovely lampwork flowers from Linda Newnham, which seemed to go perfectly with the lovely patina that Niky has brought out in the clasp.
Now go see what everyone else made!

I'm a big fan of your work, because you have a wonderful color sense and you love flowers, as do I!!! This is a lovely bracelet. I especially like the flower dangles. I'm glad you could play along!
I love your bracelets and this one is no exception. Pretty and simple but with a certain " je ne sais quoi"! Love your colour choice as well.
So pretty Rebecca! Thanks for playing along!
Fabulous! Way to use those flower beads!
Rebecca! Thanks for joining us. I always love your use of flower beads... I'm always watching on Instagram... This is a stunner. I like the texture created by the different shapes and sizes. Gorgeous.
Absolutely lovely!
