With June coming to and end and July fastly approaching, I am finding my self getting closer and closer to One More Year Older! As my birthday is this Friday, July 3rd. The 4th of July is my favorite holiday. When I was a little girl I always thought that the Fireworks and Parade were in celebration of ME! HAHA!!!!! I wish you all a fabulus holiday and please be safe. Don't forget to keep your pets inside away from the heat and fireworks.

Here are some of my retakes....

Beaded bangle bracelet with handcrafted lampwork bead by Kelley's Beads Studio.

I love working with lampwork beads. They amaze me. The colors are always so wonderful, and crisp.

This bracelet looks like a bangle on but is a beaded creation. Adjustable from 7 inches to 8 1/2 with lobster claw clasp and chain. I added the silver bead connector for a little unique flare.

You can find Kelley's blog link here on my blog. Her work is amazing! This bracelet is available at www.howcharmingbymichelle.com

This week I decided to have a little fun with my wbsite. I had a treasure hunt for people who are members of my facebook group page, "How Charming by Michelle Jewelry Design". I gave away 3 of these necklaces. Crystal Nugget Pendant with 18" silver round cable chain. It was fun and I think I will do it again. It was just to say Thank you to all my supporting Face Book Groupies. If I had more followers I'd have a give away on my blog too. Maybe in the future, I'll have more followers to do that. Follow me please, and invite friends!!
