I want to include some more affordable items if I ever participate at a "casual+" show. The price I will likely have to mark these for certainly does not cover the effort. Cut the leather, dye the leather, burnish the edges, add a finish to the leather, add the snaps, then stitch on the Native design tape. (I did not make the hitch stitching tape-it is from Tandy). I don't think I will ever make a batch of 20 anything again!? Brad  |

Ooooo, nice! I would think those would be very popular sellers with both men and women. Yes, it's the reality of making jewelry. Those of us who do it must really love it and have a passion for the process as most of us will never be able to sell our work for enough to actually make a living wage. I hear ya about batch work. It can get quite tedious after a while.  Dawn |

The biggest number I ever made of one things was ten, that was when I was still young and enthusiastic (as in 2010). Never again! Re the bracelets, everything that Dawn said! |

These are beautiful bracelets! Ha! Yeah, I’m not a big fan of making more than one of something.

Thank you, for all of the kind comments.
I agree, never 20 of something again. But I had several different designs, and dyed some bracelet black and some dark brown. Some only one snap, some adjustable bracelets with 2 snaps. So maybe I did not make 20 of one thing, eh. ;-)

I tried. Well, I will consider the project a great test of patience. Patience is not one of my great virtues. Brad |
