I fell in love with this Apophyllite Crystal a while back and it was finally mine a few days before Christmas (a treat from my Christmas money).
However, I so wanted to wear it Christmas day and I really didn't have a suitable chain or anything else to wear it on...so after nabbing some silver thread from Mum, I set about making a Kumihimo braid in silver & white.
I managed to get the braid finished Christmas Eve and this is what I did with it...
The crystal is wrapped in silver wire...
The braid came up just as I wanted (which is probably more luck than judgement as I have made another cord using the same thread layout and it looks nothing like this LOL)...
The matching bracelet isn't quite finished as in the New Year I will need to get a small piece of Apophyllite to place in the wire cage but for now at least everything 'goes'.
Did you make yourself anything special for Christmas? I'd love to know..........................
