I have to get serious and go through what I have for the show next week. I'll be breaking up a number of the higher-priced strings into thirds or quarters so that they're a more reasonable price. I bought most of my turquoise several years ago and I've been looking at my usual suppliers to buy more. I've noticed the prices on certain types have skyrocketed (the Sleeping Beauty Mine closed), but also there's not a whole lot listed for sale at the moment.

Also, I'm using these oversize clasps because they help balance the weight of the bracelet so the focal stones stay up top and it makes these bracelets amazingly easy to do up. You don't need arthritis or stubby fingers (my problem) to appreciate that feature, either. And I like the look.

My sister in law had one with a similar noodle, and I wasn't sure how it was supposed to be worn - since the only way it fit right was if the noodle was on one side. I'd never seen that before. It was very comfortable, but I never got over feeling like I wasn't wearing it correctly. Now, I guess I know that I was! It did help to keep the bracelet from roaming around the wrist - but it was also a stretch bracelet.<br /><br />I love the turquoise you have been playing with!
