I’ve just finished the tutorial for my “Fleurs et Papillons” Cuff! While proofreading the tutorial it occurred to me that there are so many possibilities for making the cuff! Although I used Metallic Iris Brown seed beads, it could be embellished with all manner of novelty beads and crystals! And for those who don’t work in Polymer clay, fabric could easily be used for the flowers and butterflies! I can envision this cuff made with etherial layers of moire, organza and tulle stitched to the beading foundation with sparkling flat-backed Lochrose crystals! And instead of using a brass cuff blank as the armature, the cuff ends could be joined by ties of flowing satin ribbon…a Faerie Queene-worthy creation! Does that whet your artistic appetite? You’ll find the tutorial in my Etsy shop along with the beading kit! Enjoy!
