I made these two bracelets a few days before a craft show that I went to on Dec 6th. I really wanted to have a couple of cheaper bracelets available. Most of my bracelets are around $40 which is the higher end of my products. These I decided to list for $25. I actually didn't really end up selling any bracelets at the show. (I did really well, but necklaces were my biggest seller surprisingly!) I made two different colors, one more masculine, and one more feminine, although

Its grounding yet uplifting vibration is said to strengthen confidence, resilience, and personal empowerment.

Blue is my favorite color, that is no secret. I don't usually like the stone turquoise but I do love teal colors that are often called turquoise. These are glass, they aren't turquoise stone, but they really really look like they are and I actually love it! It is technically just a picasso Turquoise (the color) finish on glass beads but I think it makes such an amazing bracelet. This is probably one of my favorite dragons that I have made so far. I got a ton of these beads so

Someone on TikTok challenged me to make a clear dragon bracelet. I have been getting a lot of attention on my videos about dragon bracelets recently. A few people have ordered commissions but this one was just a challenge. I think I pulled it off. Technically the back scales are a pale yellow but it is so transparent that I think it counts anyway. The belly has both white and clear but that gives the belly a little bit of depth as well. I honestly absolutely love how it came

Kambaba Jasper is often associated with deeply grounding, ancient Earth energy that fosters stability and inner peace. Many believe it soothes the nervous system, helping calm fears, worries, and emotional turbulence. Its steady, nurturing vibration is said to encourage patience, resilience, and a balanced outlook during times of change.

The very first time I went to a gem show I bought a lot of things without really knowing what would work for me and what wouldn't. As a result I bought a lot of things that are extremely hard to use. Check out the blue and red crystals in these two bracelets. They are so tiny! I tried like six different times to use them without just fully covering the entire stone in beads. And It wasn't until I managed this version of their bezel that I was finally able to make something t

Diopside is often associated with deep emotional healing, especially when it comes to releasing long-held grief or stress. Its grounding energy is believed to reconnect the heart with the natural world, fostering compassion, openness, and gentleness. Many people turn to diopside to enhance intuitive understanding and support spiritual growth through self-reflection. It’s also thought to encourage learning and mental expansion, making it useful for those seeking clarity and ne

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
