Blue Moon On Monday

I'm feeling a little over the Moon with this bracelet - and it reminded me of a Duran Duran song that I like "New" Moon on Monday... so since those large softly round chalcedony beads sort of remind me of moons and celestial things, I figured, why not call this bracelet "Blue" Moon on Monday? :-)
Over time, I've sort of resisted making 'links' bracelets, because, to me, they always a little stiffer to wear than the traditional flowing bracelets I can make using jewelry wire, HOWEVER, once I started making this bracelet, I could not believe how fluid it feels in my hands and on my wrist. I LOVE IT!!!

It's like water flowing softly through my fingers - it's really a fantastic feeling (ok, yes, I'm a little nutty, but I love the feel of this bracelet, so please forgive me!)

Anyhow, I had these gorgeous super sleek deep milky blue (dyed) Chalcedony beads and I decided to do a herringbone weave with Sterling Silver wire (over 3 yards of wire, that is).

This bracelet feels so sleek, you won't be able to keep your hands off of it. I know I can't, and I'm having a very hard time putting it up for sale.

Each link is secured by triple sterling silver jump rings, and the whole piece is finished with a modern substantial 3-ring adjustable sterling silver toggle clasp.

A gorgeous piece for yourself or for someone you love! Treat yourself today :)
