An island vacation isn't in the cards for me this year, but a girl can dream. My dreams tend to manifest in my micro macrame jewelry pieces even when I don't specifically set out to design that way. I choose components that appeal to me (these are by Heather Powers of Humblebeads) and colors to suit my mood and before I know it, I'm meandering down a sandy beach in a place where soft waves lap at the shore...
I spy a few starfish and a crab skitters across my path as the palms sway gently in the breeze.
Are you there with me? Can you feel the warm sun on your face?
I had fun with this micro macrame wrap bracelet, experimenting with some different knotting techniques. I used two different colors in the half knot sinnet in the center and worked on perfecting the leafy, shell-like pattern I've been playing with at the top. I'm still working on making smooth knotted curves in the bottom piece, but I'm getting better. And I didn't set out to make these earrings matchy match, but things happen...
