Story Teller Link Bracelet

By BobbiWired

Uploaded on: Mar 09, 2009

Description:

The “Story Teller” is a design idea I have been working on for a very long time, as a way to “tell a story” with a beautiful piece of jewelry. This tutorial provides step by step instructions to create an interlocking hinged link bracelet with a nearly invisible clasp. 21 design ideas and elements included.
Note: Some of the design ideas in this tutorial include Corra’s Snowflake Earrings Knot tutorial, Perri’s Winter Wreaths, and Periwinkle Bead Cap tutorials. The tutorials themselves are NOT included, just the suggestions on how to use these wonderful designs.

Thank you Thank you Eni!!! It was really a lot of fun to do, the design ideas came almost faster than I could write them down. I even had to pull out of traffic to write 2 of them down on my way to work...

Thank you thank you Miss Perri - last I checked our precious links left New York for Malaysia on the 10th. Not sure why they had to go through New York or why it took 6 days to get there(NY). Corra should have them soon I hope.

This has been so much fun, even after I got to pick my links I have really enjoyed watching them on their journey. Need to finish my bracelet so that I can post my pics. Thanks again to Bobbi for organizing this, it was great fun!

I have mine finished too Carrie - I just need to photograph them - I have just been so swamped. You know it's bad when you make a to do list, and the first thing on it is "make a to-do list" ;P
