The 7000 Bracelets for Hope Blog Hop!

The Global Genes Project, launched the “7,000 Bracelets for Hope” campaign to support families and children living with rare disease.

Jewelry designer Lori Anderson came up with the idea for this blog hop, and rounded up 112 participants who have made blue jean/denim inspired bracelets to help support the cause!

Here's the bracelet that I made for the event~

Lori suggested we use an adjustable clasp, so I chose one with a hook and chain.

I used various blue glass beads - faceted, roundels, and seed beads, with silver spacers and clasp.

The focal is one of my blue stoneware ceramic beads.

I hope someone will enjoy wearing my bracelet as much a I enjoyed making it.
