Stormy North

Nothing says "winter" to me quite like Howlite. This beautiful cabochon was picked up in an Ohio rockshop several years ago. It is surrounded with howlite pebbles and rectangle logs, as well as frosted white and gunmetal grey #11 beads. The clasp is a howlite bead. Since I made it in August 08, this was just a little mental air conditioning! >>MPK

Mentha Latte

This bracelet features one of my porcelain cabochons in a fabulous glaze called "Cappuchino Mint". The companion pebbles are Ocean Jasper, selected to bring out the minty green of the glaze. The body of the bracelet is paved with matte #11 beads and is meant to recall the creamy froth of a smooth hot drink. Mmm; have a sip... >>MPK

Flamingo Teal

This uniquely shaped bracelet features one of my porcelain cabochons. Surrounding it are salmon colored round dyed coral beads and blue dyed coral nuggets. The matte teal #11 beads come from Shipwreck Beads. The clasp is a magnetic square set on a point. At first, the idea was to "capture" the cabochon in a netting of #15 beads but I didn't want to obscure the tiny splashes of blue and tan. Perhaps I'll try that concept on another bracelet. 8-08 >>MPK
