FUN with Fall Organics - Electroformed Acorn Bead Caps


I have been making inventory for the State Museum show, and having FUN!!! Walking around my yard looking for leaves a few weeks ago, I started picking up acorns. We have HUGE oak trees and acorns are plentiful! I have been looking for unusal copper bead caps, with no luck, so I decided to make my own using the acorn caps. This copper bracelet has a focal bead using powdered frits, electroformed acorn bead caps and accent beads (fire opal, copper and trade beads).
There are more of these to come. I have focals in the works and bead caps in the cooker. Thanks for looking!
