Heirloom Treasure Bracelet
Michelle took advantage of our new Art Deco Flower Toggle Clasp in her idea this week, lending the whole piece a wonderfully vintage feel. This asymmetrical bracelet also utilizes Filigree Gold Rounds, two colors of Pony Beads, Midnight Pearls and Bali Style Heishi. Wear it with a casual outfit or when you’d like to make a statement! The bracelet measures about 8 inches in length, including the clasp.
