Chandelier Watchlet



I've finally gotten around to incorporating a watch face into my chandelier bracelet that I designed back in March. For some time now I've been playing with the idea of combining a watch and bracelet since I typically wear both on the same wrist and therefore often need to choose between the two.





The challenge was designing a final piece that would be seen first as a bracelet and second as a watch rather than the other way around. When I spied this watch face in a store I knew it would be a perfect match for my chandelier bracelet. After hours of fiddling around I've managed to set down my tools and am satisfied with the results.

Sarees and Celebrations!

Remember the Indian Flare hand jewellery that I made for my friend's wedding? Well got to I wear it last weekend and it was a big hit with her family. The 4-day wedding (of which I went to 3 of the days) was so much fun!  I got to participate in the henna ceremony, borrow beautiful traditional Indian clothes for the wedding, and eat tonnes of great Indian food (mmmmmm!).

Here are a few photos from that celebration.
