• the copper wire was gifted to me by my brother-in-law • he used to repair diesel generators for a living • he saved me SO much scrap, you wouldn’t believe
• i bought the small glass beads for an SCA project i did a while back • different project than the other one tho
• the brass-coloured beads came from a bracelet a friend gave me to take apart • one of those ones that’s just maybe six different kinds of beads strung in no perceptible order? • i can’t with those, i always wanna take them apart & put them back together but with a pattern
• & the amethyst beads came from a strand given to me at an SCA A&S competition • i’ve been meaning to make something with them for like twenty years now • it’s well past time
• a friend sent me a BUNCH of cool bangles as part of an effort to Have Less Stuff • many thanks Brodyqat, i’ve been having FUN
• the other round wire thing looks like a bangle but is not • well okay, it sort of is • it _was_ a bracelet but it had beads strung on it & i don’t think that counts as a bangle
• the stick is actually cholla bone • i got it on a trip to Arizona • it’s fun stuff to play with • the ends are kinda fragile, be cautious with em • but that’s why nothing’s attached too close to the ends
