I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

Caterpillar emerging

When choosing the beads for Caterpillar bracelets, I felt a contrast in texture would be beneficial, and picked the yellow/pink/orange sparkly mix for the top beads in the pink bracelet. However, once I'd got going on it, I didn't think much of the twinkly fairy-light effect and reconsidered. Fortunately, my bead stash provided one or two alternatives, from which I chose a matte pinky toned replacement - a little safe, but more to my liking than the original idea.
Do you agree?

I love the top one!

I think I like them both Gill. Can you share how you make the bracelet or point to a receep! Please.

They're both lovely. I think it depends when you'd intend them to be worn. The top one says sunny day time events to me, whereas the bottom one is bit more sophisticated.

This is beautiful, Gill: such subtle colours and lovely textures in the beads.
