This is one of my most creative efforts to date. I crochet gemstone chips with a variety of other beads in the same palette to create a large focal collage. Then I create a coordinated bracelet with some of the same beads. The result is a lush, sophisticated profusion of color. Click here to see how its done.

Tigereye : tigereye, crystal, and bronze glass beads


Pink : pink quartz, freshwater pearls, crystal and glass beads


Green : jade, aventurine, fluorite, cat's eye and glass beads


Amethyst
