Happening this week

This week Malamoose is working on wire wrapped beaded leather bracelets. I currently purchase leather remnants and have ended up with a lot of smaller scraps left over from my leather watches. Who knew these scraps could turn into something so beautiful.

Single leather bracelets.

Multi wrapped bracelets.

I really like wearing them all together like the new bangle bracelets of today. However they are just as sweet worn by themselves and wont leave you disappointed.

I'm working on getting these listed on Etsy. They will also be available at a local shop here in Vermont. This is just the beginning of these treasures so if your interested pick one up fast cause I'm not sure how long they will last. If for some reason you don't see them right away at Malamoose Beadery leave a comment and I'll arrange a listing for you. I hope you enjoy your week and I hope to see you soon.

Beading Fun

This past weekend my mother took me to my first bead expo. It started bright and early with me figuring out what jewelry I was going to wear with my outfit so that I could show off my creations. With all those fabulous beads there, someone was bound to be looking for new ideas. I decided on a necklace that I've made from a photograph of some beautiful summer flowers. You can see the photograph here at Malamoose Photography on Etsy. The piece that I wore was turned into a pendant that looks like this one only in the other picture. I did get one complement as we were leaving the expo.
As a buyer I definitely recommend going to a bead show. Its a bit overwhelming at first, but if you go with items in mind, you will find that it's a place to shop as well as drool over the magnificent colors!

Things to come

What colors are you working with this year? Here's a sneak peak at my new Spring collection. It will be featuring copper, greens, yellows, and a lots of different texture from beads to leather. Come and see what I've done with these beads at Malamoose Beadery. All watches and accessories are handmade in Vermont and are a one of a kind item.
