Scarlet and White

I wanted to design something with scarlet and white, the school colors of the University of Hartford.  I will be there this weekend at Homecoming with a craft booth.  I am an alumna of the university, getting my graduate degree there back in 19(mumble mumble).  I always like a coil bracelet, since there is never any problem with a clasp.  So I have used pressed glass, lampwork, crystal, and seed beads in different variations of red and white to make these coil bracelets.  I think they turned out nicely.  Although I am not looking forward to the long drive, it should be a nice day Saturday in Connecticut, and the University has a very attractive campus in Bloomfield, just on the outskirts of Hartford proper.

Mixed Turquoise Glass Bead Coil Bracelet

Different colors and shapes of turquoise glass and crystal look beautiful on this coil bracelet.  There is a teardrop dangle at the end. 

Baseball Coil Bracelet

This is a coil bracelet in white and dark blue with an antiqued silver baseball charm.  It is that time of year after all.  For the bracelet above, I had the New York Yankees in mind.  However, this would work for any team whose colors are dark blue and white, including your favorite little league or minor league team. 

This second bracelet is in red and white with blue.  I had my own Philadelphia Phillies in mind when I designed this, but it would be suitable for the many teams that use red, white, and blue in their uniforms.

Green Lampwork Coil Bracelet

This is a coil bracelet made with green beads, some of them are lampworked and are very pretty.  There is a green beaded dangle at the end.  It is very comfortable to wear and will fit most wrists.
