Still working with a size 40 thread I decided that this bell would probably look OK in a ring.
These rings are 2 1/2" in diameter and are often or usually sold as bracelets. I used to call them 'Indian bracelets' but not sure what they're known as nowadays. Hmmmm, perhaps I should google them!!!!
This one needs a bit of tidying up - a dab of glue on the ends (none need sewing in on this pattern), some careful 'snipping' of extra thread and the removal of a piece of hair/thread from the bottom right corner.
Do you like the way I've added beads AFTER tying to the metal ring? Not sure if I do but that's me - never sure of things!!! Remember - this is JUST an experiment!!!!!

Can I be honest, (or are you going to shoot me) I like the beads not sure about the ring.

Nice bell! :)
ReplyDeleteAround here bracelets like that are called bangle bracelets. I have one 25yr. old daughter who loves them.
