Ah ha! There are additions to the Metal Complex Bezel line!
These hand crafted link bracelets are available in five metallic colours. For my post I chose to work with Antique Copper.
The links are nice and deep so I knew I could embed anything I wanted into them. I have been wanting to use these big pearl earrings for some time now. I gathered them and the rest of my supplies and made this bracelet in under 30 minutes.
You may be wondering where I got so many pearl earrings…and why I wasn’t wearing them. For those of you who shop in person at John Bead you may have seen the grab bags that were available for a while. I bought quite a few and enjoyed sorting them for my own stash.
My first step was to fill the bezel links with black Apoxie Sculpt. (If you have not seen all the posts I did about this product you really should check out all the Apoxie Sculpt Posts.)
Apoxie Sculpt is available in many colours. I love the black for a base.
I pressed my pearls and Preciosa Chatons into the black clay and voila. Done. Apoxie Sculpt cures rock hard in 24 hours.
Now, my bracelet might be a little over the top. Imagine what you could do with your own components! Better yet, get your jewelery box open and pull out all those single earrings and re-use them!
