Ceramic Ornaments for Sari Wrap Bracelets - WOYWW 191

It's a very breezy Wednesday in Texas with Blue Skies all around ...at least in Central Texas!  Hope you are having a great day.  On my work desk today you will find handmade ceramic bracelet ornaments to be used on my sari wrap bracelets.

The first photo is of the greenware pieces drying. The faces were pressed into a ceramic mold I inherited from my MIL and the others are just free-formed out of the same clay. They will be fired in my small kiln to bisque and then glazed.

The above ceramic ornaments have been glazed and are ready to string on recycled sari ribbon.

Isn't this stuff beautiful?  It can also be used to crochet or knit with.  But  I use it to make wrap bracelets. Just add some bead embellishments and some knots and you have a fab bracelet!
Don't look at the arm, I couldn't find a young model in time for this blog post!  Francine was out riding the range with Hunky at the time!
Czech out what Julia and others around the world are creating over HERE!  And go out and make something beautiful!

  1. What lovely bracelets.
    So pretty.
    Lucky you with blue skies - haven't seen blue in the sky for days here in dull, wet, windy Glasgow.
    Sorry I'm late visiting
    Happy WOYWW
