big bead bangle

I love bangles and have a been collecting them since I was a teenager.
A big bead bangle is perfect for summer wear, it gives a lot of impact but not so much bulk, which is perfect for when the summer heats up.
I make several of these big bead bangles and will be putting a couple in my etsy shop.

I also made a couple of bangles from a heavy piece of copper wire that I have been hoarding saving to make into bangles.

Bangle no.83a
In this bangle, I also used some ultra tiny brushed gold color metal beads from Thailand. I have saved these little beads for years and I now only have a few left.  I love these cuties and will miss them when they are gone.  I love pairing them with cobalt blue.

tip: when slipping a big bead bangle over your hand, have the big bead to the cupped portion of your hand to make slipping the bangle over your hand easier. Then you can just turn the bangle on your wrist to position the big bead.
