I just finished up two custom orders. One was a wonderful butterfly cuff that has a steampunk look. It had a first for me. The embroidered section of the cuff is not a solid piece. It is two pieces that are bridged by a brass metal work butterfly. It actually looks really amazing with section of a copper blank behind it.
I also completed a custom plaid bracelet for a wonderful woman on Etsy. It is a variation of the bracelet with the colors of her family tartan. It actually turned out more amazing then I thought it would be. I am actually really happy about it.
Now I am working on another cuff. It has a large hematite cabochon in the center. It is fastened down with black hex delicas, then surrounded with light gun metal delicas. So at this point I thought it was going to take on a similar feel to the Metalicuff. But every other type of delica or bead seemed wrong. Then I found these round rough cut quartz crystal beads. Now the cuff has this crazy traditional victorian style feel. So I am going to go with it.
