I've finished my mixed metal bracelet. It's made with three types of metal clay. Firstly, the usual silver clay, then bronze clay and also copper clay.
The design has a lot of movement as each little
piece can twist around. When the pieces are twisted and not laying flat, it reminds me of jacks - that game we played as kids with little funny shaped pieces and a ball.
I'm thinking that that's what I'll name it - maybe "relaxed jacks". But I'd love to hear if you have a better idea.
So here's where this week's competition comes in. Think of a name for my bracelet.
And please - not mixed metal bracelet! You know what sort of names I normally choose.
My other thought was "indecision day" bracelet. Especially as it is election day today. You can't decide what colour metal to wear for your jewelry today - just one too many decisions, so instead you wear three colours - silver, bronze and copper!!!
So you've had two of my ideas - none of which I really like. Let's hear yours!!! I'll give a prize to the name I select.........

The style reminds me of ancient people who used stones for necklace. But it is modern and shinny.
Today is a special day for Americans. Can I call it "Golden Time"? Haha...
Can I win the bracelet? LOL!
i'm useless at thinking up names!
It looks pre-historic and makes me think that it's something Wilma from the Flintstones would wear. So how about "Yabadabadoo!"
really ashamed of not being able to come up with a good name ... but other thoughts that entered the head were
1) 'natural order' .... bronze - silver - gold being a natural progression
2) also thought about how musical cords work in threes - [had to check this with nearby expert] .... so thought 'doe - ray - me'???
or 'precious note' ... wonder if i will sleep tonight ..... cheers love craig :-)
Chrome-a-somes!!! Playing on the metal origins and the way that chromosomes connect - Craig inspired this(!) If you wanted to do a high street version, it could then be called the ChromoTin!
My idea is calling it Triathlon - inspired by the medal colours and the baton shapes.
Chui
Hey it's great to get so many guesses!! There seem to be a few thinking "old" with stones, bones, sticks ideas and yabadabadoo....but then I like the natural progression...and the chromosomes appeals too........
(I copied some of the entries into here so we could read them all together - excuse if I moved yours here from another comment!).
Deadline is Sunday evening for decision time.....Any more ideas?
