My First Etsy Trade

A few posts ago, I talked about making my first dichroic glass cabochons and using one to make a bead woven necklace which a fellow Facebook friend (FFF) wanted. I agreed to a trade and got not only a necklace and cuff for my daughter (see pictures in previous post) but a fabulous leather cuff for myself.

Jennifer of Tocadora Leather on Etsy, didn't just make one cuff. No, she lovingly made two cuffs and told me I could have my pick. This was quite a bit of work on her part, as I am allergic to nickel. She lined both cuffs to cover the exposed metal parts. I also have a small wrist, so she made both cuffs on the small side to fit me.



I honestly couldn't decide on just one cuff, so I got one in trade and bought the other one. Here I am wearing them - one on each wrist.

The buttons are from LisaPetersArt on Etsy. The button on the left is a Ceramic button and the one on the right is a Raku button. There are some beautiful and unique beads and buttons in this Etsy shop, so check it out.
