And they said, "Daylight!"


Okay, you gemstones.  Pipe down, I hear you!

This time when my beads started bossing me around, I didn't even think of not listening. I'm a quick study, you see.

So when they arranged themselves in a certain order, all I did was run them through with beading wire. And when the resulting bracelet said, "My name is Daylight" ... well ~ ~ ~

To listen to the entire noisy chorus, please visit my Etsy shop.


To give these beads credit where it's due, here is their self determined arrangement, from my copper toggle to the matching keeper ring, with petite vintage copper spacers alternating with the stones:

Hematite
Ditto
Garnet
Mookaite
Maine Tourmaline
Mookaite
More Tourmaline
Mookaite
Ditto
Watermelon Tourmaline
Ditto
Cazy Lace Agate
More Mookaite ...

... and finally, a pretty carved bell flower of Red Jasper (which isn't red at all, rather a pale creamy pink).

You know, I'm beginning to like listening to my beads.  That way they do 99% of the work.  But please don't tell them I said that!!!
