Hi Heather, thanks for asking about the bead source. If you go to Etsy.com and use the search box at the top of the page there, you can type in “czech glass green maple leaf beads” to find these exact beads. You also may want to try searches there for “czech glass green leaf beads” or “czech glass leaf beads” for other leaf beads you might even like better. 🙂

Hi Ashley! Thank you for your lovely feedback on this project.

The earwires I used in this tutorial are sterling silver that were left out to oxidize naturally. For more earwire metal and gauge recommendations, please see Earring Wire Guidelines (and be sure to read the comments below that post too).

I have not used colored craft wires for earwires. If you’re interested in doing that, I recommend that you contact the manufacturer first and ask whether they recommend their colored craft wires for use in piercings.

What kind of wire did you use for the earwires? Most designers seem to use sterling…is it permissable to use colored craft wires for earwires? Can’t really afford sterling, and I’d like more diversity as to color.

Maritza, your copper bracelet with howlite elephant sounds wonderful. I would use the jewelry pricing formula to get a ballpark figure for the price.

I use copper for inside to shape the bracelet and artistic copper wire outside. How much could this bracelet cost?
