I'm working now on a new set of bangles but again these are a return to some old ideas.

I seem recently to be on a real roll of going through my old samples and seeing if ideas I had previously abandoned for a variety of reasons are ready to be worked on again.

Sometimes I put them in the box as I wasn't sure what direction to take them in, sometimes it was as I didn't have the knowledge of how to get to the end result I wanted. Sometimes it was time that brought the work to a halt and sometimes it was that I didn't have the right beads.

In the case of these bangles I think it was needing the right beads. Even though these are just beaded using Delicas I needed colours with a punch that would work well with black & white and I think with all the new Delica colours that have been launched in the past year I'm getting the colour palette I need.
