I finally finished my butterfly bracelet. The bracelet is made up from 5 individual peyote stitched butterflies. I worked out the pattern for each of the butterflies using pictures of real butterflies and made them individually.
I then joined the butterflies together using a single gold bead at each of the wing tips. After doing this I found the bracelet was pretty flimsy so I added more gold beads inbetween the butterflies to stablise them and provide more structure to the piece.
I'm very happy with the finished bracelet. I've already decided to give it away as a mothers day gift.
