I was contacted by Rosella from http://www.paintedmemoriesbyros.etsy.com/ asking me if I could make a bracelet from wedding pictures of her daughter's wedding! I'm always up for a challenge, so I said I'd give it a try. After several attempts, I think it's finally finished. She emailed me scans of a lot of photos and I picked out some features. Here's the final look:





Oh how I wish I could take photos! Anyway, the two center beads are the eyes of the bride and groom. On either side of those are parts from a menu that Rosella made and I added the date of the wedding, then the end beads on either side are their lips. Finished off with a clasp with hearts on it! All is done in antique copper bead caps and Amethyst bicones. The photos are done in browns and sephias.
This is one of the most unique and special things I've ever seen! You did a beautiful job!
