You can find this piece in my Etsy shop.
I tend to use mostly brass and copper wire in my designs and they both give my poor carpal tunnel riddled hands a run for my money but since the price of sterling has gone through the roof, that is all I want to use. Is that crazy or what?
I can't say what I sell the most of, no one has ever asked just for sterling, brass or copper. I think my customers just go for the overall design. How about you?
What do you like using the most? Do your customers have a preference?
Just a reminder:

I can't believe what silver went up to today and I need to buy. Love the bracelet; that color is gorgeous. I just bought some beads and a cabochon that color - I sure hope they match.
ReplyDeleteAs for my customers, most seem to prefer silver although I have added accents of brass & copper. Personally, I love mixing metals in my designs.
Hi Judy! I just "Liked" you on FB and can't wait to see your new designs in the future! I just found you via Jenn Judd's blog! Love this bracelet... it's so soft and serene. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific evening!

I meant to say I think those beads look wonderful with the sterling, so beachy!
ReplyDeleteI actually prefer a mix, or all antiqued copper & brass. Most people I know like the silver...it's become so crazy expensive though!
ReplyDeleteAnd the blue beads you used are gorgeous!!

A gorgeous bracelet, and those beads are a lovely color.
ReplyDeleteI mainly use sterling and Vintaj brass, but with silver going sky high I will be doing more with brass and copper.
It's just gorgeous and I'm in love with the "beach glass". I don't have customers, but I have gravitated more toward brass lately just because of the cost. Amazing bracelet!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful piece!
