So this is what [link] was for and you can see here what I did with them.

This bracelet was a huge challenge for me, and such an exciting one, which really brought my creativity out to play.

I had just one weekend to design, craft, and piece this all together.

The centrepiece is a little picture frame with a photo of a model. This is where the story begins.

So a lovely lady contacted me on friday via email, with a file attachment containing a photograph of a model, covered from head to toe in all sorts of candy. You name it, she was covered in it! Liquorice Allsorts, marshmallows, sugar coated gummy sweets, peppermint candy canes, lollipops, cookies, and tons, tons more! She also had pink ribbons amidst all the candy in her hair, which is where the inspiration for the ribbon on the double chain comes from. I have never added ribbon before, or a second chain, so I'm quite proud of this achievement!

The model had been painted & decorated by the lady's 16 yr old daughter who is currently studying to become a make up artist (and doing an awesome job of it too!). She wanted me to create a bracelet as a gift for the model.

Well as you can imagine my inspiration went crazy! The photograph began to form as a unique piece of jewellery in my mind and I set to work until it became real! All charms have been handcrafted with polymer clay.

So here it is! Hope you all like it and don't forget I am more than happy to take on commissions like this one!
