UK Beaders Anniversary Bracelet Project April-June 2007
To celebrate the 2nd anniversary of the formation of UK Beaders, and the 1st anniversary of it's forum the members of UK Beaders decided to work on a group project.
We decided to create and raffle a charm bracelet to raise funds to continue the development of the UK Beaders site and forum, and to raise money for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
Each component was individually handcrafted and donated by one of our talented members. It is a testament to the creativity and generosity of the members of the UK Beaders forum that we ended up producing two beautiful bracelets due to the wealth of charms that were donated.
Our theme/inspiration was flower gardens, in pink and silver. The bracelets feature sterling silver, fine silver, gemstone, crystal, lampwork, glass, seed bead, and polymer clay charms. To find out more about the charms featured in this bracelet and their creators please see below.
