I'm not sure what I was expecting when I saw all those little tubes of beads but what I got what not what I expected. I love your use of denim to make those cuffs and the super creative way you embellished them with beads.<br />But the story behind the beads makes me think that each piece you make will be a legacy!

I know Colleen is loving every unique piece I make with them.<br />It's interesting that I was gifted with her stash within a few months of starting my "Enlightened Denim" line of jewelry (there are earrings and a few necklaces done in denim too!) It's nice to be able to offer my pieces to my customers for a little less than I normally would - simply because all of the items used to make them were gifted to me. <br />Have fun hoppin' everyone!
