Animal tracks bracelet



I've simplified the design of my animal tracks bracelet a little, mainly to use less material so when it is in silver, the price isn't so high.


This time, I tried making it in copper, with a footprint toggle clasp.



Can you identify the tracks?



It's a popular piece - I often get requests to make them with a different combination of tracks. And just once, I made it with different size human footprints, to symbolize different family members!

Beautiful Ruth.

FYI, sterling clay is sooooo awesome, and you can save a bit by making things thinner cause of the strength. Don't know if you've tried it, but it really is a dream. Lovely texture, longer working time, just all around wonderful:)

Have a great day. I'm thrilled every time I see you post.
