For me, summer and shells go hand and hand.  I think that is why so many of us bring back shells from a Florida vacation.  We all try to keep summer a little longer.  This bracelet is a super way to showcase some of the shells in the John Bead catalog.

I used an ABALONE SHELL ASSORTED DIAMOND PENDANT STRAND.

The shells are all diamond shaped, they are pre-drilled and are in various sizes on the strand.

To make life even easier, I used a Dazzle-It Chain Link bracelet.

A simple wire wrap attached my shells.

28 ga Artwire Non Tarnish works perfectly with the shells.  The wire is soft and easy to wrap without tools.  The best part about the shells is they look pretty from either side.
