Recycled

I was given a couple of  elasticated bangles  which were broken/damaged and between the two managed to come up with this bracelet.
I tried to re-thread them onto elastic cord but struggled to get it to stay knotted so instead I threaded the pieces onto tigertail wire and added a little charm and lobster clasp.


Here's a close-up showing the enamelled flowers and crystals.
I think it's turned out very well and I know i'll enjoy wearing it.
