'Shock The Reaper' bead embroidered cuff

              

Ahhhh, at last I finally came through, no more saying sorry i still didn't finish :), Here she is , a bead embroidered 1 1/2 " cuff , and always a one of akind, I tried this one on my own wrist a size 6, and was pleased to see it fit perfectly, adjustable to fit even larger wrists.  I am pleased to announce my newest piece,  'Shock The Reaper'

Yes, I spelled it wrong in the post title,  after viewing my post again I realized my mistake , no harm done :)

Here's about as far as I have gotten , finished the front ( never know when that will change).  The suede back has been glued with a thin application of gorilla glue, then clamped , I used clothes pins and the clamps I received in my Christmas stocking:) 
The front is done in the same fashion, except for making sure the beads are not marred or broken ,etc. I like to let both sides dry over night for maximum bondage. This is not necessary ,just a preference of mine.  Two hours before any bead work applied to the piece would be sufficient :), TIP: when using gorilla glue its not need to be put on thick or for the clamps to be on more than 2/3 hours.
Well here she sit's waiting to be finished, I am using size 8 seed beads for the trim , lemon-lime coloring. One of these days my pic's will speak for themselves, so I hope :)
