Arrowhead with Wolf Print Paracord Bracelet

Someone had seen photos of polymer clay beads I had made with an arrowhead and we got to talking about doing something in metal.  They liked the wolf prints as well and I told them I would think about it.  This thinking lead me to some sketching, then sawing and you know the rest of the story.

I have some impressed leaves on the background and you will see that I hammered some detail on the arrowhead, the paw prints were cut out and the piece was sweat soldered down.  I even got some little claw marks in the mix.  This bracelet is now somewhere out there in the Valley.

I have some other various themes I'm working through for more story bracelets.

About Me

My photo
I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
