Ever since I took a Lampwork bead class I have really liked the look of a skeleton key with a Lampwork bead made right on it. But, Money has been a bit tight and I could not justify buying one, at least right now. I thought, I can make a skeleton key out of beads and I did.

I have to say it did take me awhile to figure out how to make the ring on the top. But, once I did it came together pretty quickly. And I love the result, I hope you do too!

I really like camo I think it's kinda cool looking. I call this bracelet "Green Camo Glam" It has some sparkle to it!!

I have a fascination with Cherry Blossoms. I needed to fill this fascination with a bracelet with Cherry Blossoms on it!

I finally have added a New bracelet to my line of Photo Ribbon Bracelets. It's Cary Grant!! You can find more about it in my shop Pink Pooch Designs.

I have been so busy with orders (which is a good thing) that I haven't had the time to do a blog post and I felt really bad. So, I have decided to show you and feature some of my favorites on etsy, for a little change of pace.

Thanks for being patient with me, I hope to be back on track very soon!

He has shades of silver, black, gray and white. This bracelet measures 7" long x 1-5/16" wide. The clasp is a sterling silver slide clasp.

A little insight into the making of my Photo RIbbon Bracelets. All my photo ribbons take approximately 9-10 hours to make. I used beads that are about 1/8” wide and each bead is picked up individually with a a needle and sewn through the bead next to it. Each bracelet is made with over 2000, depending on the length and width.

Every Photo Ribbon and Snapshot Bracelet comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and will be packages in a beautiful pink gift box.

So, I made these plastic shrink bracelet "beads" (I'm calling them "beads", only because I can't figure out what else to call them).

You can see from the side view that I made them to curve around a wrist. I have had them for a couple months and could never really figure out what I was going to do with them. The couple things I had thought of just didn't work.

I knew I would be able to figure how to make them into a bracelet. Well, the time has come and I have the best idea EVER. But, I can't tell you. You will just have to keep checking back to see what I have done with them. Oh, how I love secrets! He He He :O)

This bracelet is a take off of my other Famous Faces Photo Ribbon bracelets.

I made this Elizabeth Taylor bracelet so it will fit many different size wrist. It's a 6-1/4 bracelet and has a 2-1/2 Extension.

I used a brick stitch with Delica Seed beads and japanese cube beads in shades of black, white and silvers.

It has a sterling silver adjustable clasp.

This is a new bracelet I'm working on, Lucille Ball in Color. I thought with her red hair it would look really amazing and I think so far it does. What do you think?

I really do, I want to know who you would like to see on a bracelet. If you have never looked at my shop on Etsy or what I make, please do PinkPoochDesigns.etsy.com. You will see that I mainly make bracelets of older celebrities, like Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Bettie Page (One of the first pin-up girls), Elvis and James Dean.


I do also have newer celebrities, Princess Diana, Ellen DeGeneres and Miley Cyrus and there are others.

What I want to know are the older celebrities. I do have a lot of older ones in mind. But, I want your input on this!!

Who do you think would look really nice as one of my Photo Ribbons or Snapshot bracelets?

I feel everyone who makes handcrafted items has a crafting disaster. So, that doesn't leave me out. Last week I was trying to make a new Snapshot bracelet.

I wanted to try a new face, I decided to make May West. Having never tried to bead her before it would be a challenge, as with all the other first time patterns. Most of the time when I'm making a new face the pattern has to be adjusted as you bead, it looks better on paper than it does when beaded. So, this was no different, I must have taken it apart a least 5 times.

Finally I decided just to finish beading it and cross my finger that it would come out like the others did, "GOOD". Well, I was wrong. I don’t think you would look at this one and say, “Oh look it’s May West”, I don’t feel it looks like her.

What do you think, Does it look like her?

So, here is my crafting/beading disaster. I'm only human!!

I have made a new type of bracelet, Snapshot bracelet and I have renamed my other bracelets to Photo Ribbon Bracelets. I have to admit I didn't come up with either name. I asked the Etsy beadweavers team and they helped me with them.

Well, here are 2 of the NEW Snapshot bracelets. I'm working on the third, I hope to have it done today and listed in my Etsy Shop. Take a look and leave a comment on who I should make next!!
