Quick D.I.Y. – Beaded Bracelet

January 11, 2022Machbunny Leave a comment

A round-beaded bracelet, consisting a pattern of two bone beads; followed by an alternating pattern of one small wooden bead and one larger amber bead; and finished off with two more bone beads. the ends of the brcelet are secured with a double fisherman's knot on each end, while a third double fisherman's knot serves as the cord's drawstring. The ends of the drawstring are terminated with a figure-8 knot, followed by a green glass bead, a tiny wooden bead, and a double fisherman's knot.

Image of my pet green-cheek conure, with the colour mutation of turquoise pinapple. The small parrot has a pink hooked beak, with a bit of orange around the nasal area, a light grey head, a greenish brown face with yellowish cheeks, and white eye ring with dark beady eyes. the chest is mostly white and gradually becomes more cream in colour; the back is greyish blue, and the wings are more blueish green with yellow on the shoulders. The bird is looking at the camera with some seed hulls stuck to its beak. — *Bick is still having a good time at home.*
