Wow, I'm just getting into jewellery making but never would've though of weaving sprites in. They look nice but I'm not sure I'd actually wear one. Maybe as a keyring or a wriststrap. The effect's really nice though

Wow. These are truly amazing and I would really wear them.
Reminds me of that zelda jewellery someone made.
I think I made a post somewhere in the offtopic forum but I can't be asked to go look for it.
Great stuff.

But really, how much?

She's thinking like 20.00 bucks each...I will be posting a topic in the WTS forum where I can take your custom requests and she will make them exactly as you specify. They aren't just limited to bracelets either. She can make bookmarks, keychains, etc. The prices would be different obviously but you guys can say if the price is fair or not.

Oy my lord, I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Original legend of zelda would be cool. Link with the little shooty sword + a triforce for the win!

A final fantasy one would be sweet aswell, Chocobo, Moogles etc.


If you do decide to start selling these, let me know I'd be down for multiples.

That blog just gave me an epic edit ......The NES game Ice Hockey OMG! One of these with a skinny guy, medium guy and a fat guy all in the shooting pose from the game EPIC! Oh god.......

Also what beadloom does your GF use, I am considering getting one for my lady.

As of right now I'm waiting for new beads to arrive so I can start making them again. I'm kinda busying at the moment with schoolwork, but I'll try to make orders as they come in. I will try the be as specific as possible with my bracelets (bookmarks etc.) but somethings are harder to make than others.

This is the one I use right now. It's kinda crap...but a good starter for anyone wanting to try. It's limiting me right now though, so I'm getting a new one soon. Hopefully this one.....

They look great. How long, on average, does it take for your GF to complete 1 bracelet? It looks a bit time consuming fitting every little bead into a line of strings.

I'm JKR Firefox's GF.
If I sit down and do an entire bracelet it can take anywhere from 4-6 hours. Depending on size and colours.
I don't usually sit down for that length of time in one sitting.

It can be hard on the eyes after awhile.

Big as in length or width?
For length I would ask for you wrist size, just because there really not adjustable.
As for width....well it can be very small or very large depending on the picture or design you want. The ones I have posted are between 1 inch to 1.5 inches.

Sorry I hope that helps.

I'm not quite sure how I plan to sell these....My boyfriend came up with the idea to sell them so maybe he'l come up with that idea too.
Maybe a paypal account or even money order would be fine.
If you have any suggestions let me know.
