As promised, we start the week with a new addition to the I Heart...Collection. There seem to be an abundance of necklaces in the collection at the moment and even though that's what I like to create most, I wanted to make another bracelet. This time I've decided to go with a cuff style.
I love Dragons and I think they are my favourite mythological creature. Also, my Chinese astrological animal is the dragon, which I share with my Mother. So I created this bracelet, drawing on inspiration from them.

Dragon Eye Ring
Rings are my favourite type of jewellery and lately I've got into beaded rings. They're not as uncomfortable as they look, they're a lot easier to freeform than wire rings, they don't wear or tarnish as easily - depending on what beads you use - and you can make them from any old beads you have lying around - particularly useful when you have old beads that needs using up!
This is the first bezel ring I've made. I had these really cool glass beads that reminded my of dragon's eyes - my favourite* mythological creatures, keep your damned unicorns!
