I know just said yesterday that patterns can be a lot on these dragons but I take it all back! The pattern on this dragon is to die for! I love the pops of red, the way the gold snakes around and the neutral background of the black. It might be a challenge for someone to style this piece but I think that if someone can it will be so worth it. Imagine an entire outfit styled around these, it would be amazing. You might only be able to wear it to like one event but the event wo

While the patterns are a fun challenge to make the solid color dragons do always sell faster and more efficiently than the more complicated ones. When you are wearing the bracelet I think it is easier to style a solid gold bangle than a complicated colorful one. Plus there is the saying that it should be interesting through, color, shape, texture, or material but not all at once. These have an amazing texture, and sometimes adding color can be too much. But this basic gold? C

I didn't really want to put a pattern into this bracelet, but I only had 4g of the silver beads and I need around 17g total to make one of these. I do love how the stripes came out! I think this dragon has a far more feminine, delicate look to it than most of them that I make. Yes it has a pink belly and that could be a factor but I am actually attributing it to the more muted color palette all around. The soft white, the slightly matte silver, and the muted pink. It just fee

This was my first stab at putting a pattern in the dragon's scales and I was really happy with how snakelike it came out. I thought it would end up a lot more symmetrical than it did, but the offset of the scale gave it a wiggly, more natural look. It wasn't my intent but I love it. I also intended for it to have an entirely black belly but I ran out of black beads pretty early on so I transitioned to a gold gradient and finished it out in gold.

I made about four, maybe five, but I think four of these watchband style bracelets from these tila beads. And they all sold!!! When I did my popup at the winery I sold every single one of the watchband style bracelets that I had made. It was a really exciting moment for me, usually I sell maybe one piece at a time of a given style so it was really cool to have so many people gravitate to the same stuff. Especially because they had sat in my inventory for so long prior to that
