NEW Brass Charm Bracelet

Somtimes cliches say it best--Thank god its Friday! I finished a new piece last night that will be auctioned off at a charity event in Altoona PA. A couple of similar bracelets will be available at www.AQuirkofArt.com within the week. Take a look:


This bracelet features 6 of my signature vintage tin heart charms and an array of hand-wrapped glass, resin and African brass beads. This is the first piece I've done using brass as the main metal component. Most of my other pieces use sterling with brass as an accent. Brass is really a beautiful metal, very affordable and often overlooked or underrated by. It can give a really warm, rich glow to a piece and I love the way this turned out. Hope the auction-goers agree!
