I love vintage jewellery and today I’m making an art deco inspired bracelet.
You may remember that I received a package from Soft Flex before Christmas and last week I completed the challenge of making a necklace and earrings from the Deco the Halls Challenge Kit.
In that tutorial I made some flowers from some of the beads and I’m going to be using one of those in my bracelet. If you didn’t see that tutorial, and how I made those flowers, please go and watch that as I don’t go into how I make them in this video.
I also used the diamond shaped beads because they really remind me or art deco architecture as well.
