Playing with my beads... BeadNurse Band Samples

Just a quick post to show you a few color samples that I made from BeadNurse's bracelet design that I saw in her Etsy shop HERE. If you recall, I used this basic design in my experiments with Silky beads in THIS post. As far as I know, she doesn't have a pattern available for sale. She only sells ready-made jewelry.

When I made the samples posted here, I tried different numbers of SuperDuos between the CzechMates and oddly enough I like some of the colors best with two SuperDuos and some better with three or four. I think it has to do with how light or dark the bead colors are. I like the lighter colored CzechMates with just two SuperDuos between them and more SuperDuos with the darker colors. I think it would be very nice to wear two or three of these very thin bracelets together.
