Freshwater pearls, Greek leather cord, sterling silver wire
I know I am late posting my August giveaway but July was really busy for me! First my vacation to New York City for ten days which was AWESOME, then home for ten days, then off to Pasadena for the Pasadena Bead & Design Show – WHEW! I will blog about the show hopefully this coming week. Thanks to all for asking how it went! I wanted to get the August giveaway posted first LOL.
This is my most popular selling Greek leather cord bracelet! It is on my Jewels By Jules site – scroll about half way down the page and click on the picture for another view of the bracelet.
HOW TO ENTER THIS MONTH’S DRAWING: Post a comment on my blog telling me what you think of my new bracelet that I just posted on ArtFire, Wire Wrapped Blue Planet Bracelet. I totally love this bracelet and it looks GREAT with a pair of jeans and tee! Definitely keeping one of these in my personal stash!
I will be writing a TUTORIAL for this bracelet later this month. I will also have KITS available for purchase.
So check out the leather cord bracelet on Jewels By Jules and give me your opinion about Wire Wrapped Blue Planet Bracelet!
Whose name will Joey draw on August 31……??

How lovely! Please include me for this one.
How fun is this! The focal bead is almost “dangerous” and the rest of the beads are so organic looking. Makes me just want to feel them with my own hands you know? And of course the wire work is just too beautifu….as usual! Congrats on a another great piece
LOL dangerous! Someone asked me at the Pasadena Bead & Design Show if it is uncomfortable or pokey but it is not at all. It rolls on the bracelet. And yes, the band agate beads are totally cool – as soon as I saw them, I started putting strands in my basket at the show and I bought all different sizes, too!
I love your planet bracelet. I’ve always been a huge fan of blue and silver together and I particularly love the wild shapes of your beads and the different looking textures in everything. Awesome!
Thank you for having such a nice giveaway!
The Blue Planet bracelet is so cool! I love the texture of the beads – they really do look like planets!! I love the wire wrapping around them as well. It definitely would look great with a pair of jeans (when I can fit in mine again
Tell Joey he better be picking my name on August 31! 
It is gorgeous and I am not just saying that because one of my favorite colors is blue. It is so unique and I think it would be stunning on anyone.
So, I was a little wary when I read Leather and Pearls together. It could have gone terribly wrong, but this bracelet is gorgeous! I want it! I love mixing textures you’ve done it so well with this bracelet. Beautiful work!
Yes, I absolutely love that bracelet! I hate trying to c omment on things that I don’t like, b ut this one I absolutely love. I wonder if you could fit some of the smaller Blue Planet beads into the focal bead? That would be interesting!
Please put my name into the drawing!
What a gorgeous bracelet! Love the contrast of the white pearls and the dark leather. Please put my name in the drawing!
This is a very stunning bracelet and I imagine it would elicit many positive comments from admirers. I have always been a fan of beautiful bracelets because you can admire them so easily. (Not the case with earrings for example!) I would be happy to win this piece! I taught jewelry for awhile so I’m very, very impressed by your wire skills. Beautifully designed and crafted.
I also feel in love with your leather and pearls bracelet. Great unexpected combination of materials; “proper” pearls with edgy leather. Bravo!
Love the bracelet. I am just learning the art of wire wrapping. UGH. Can’t imagine the time spent on this bracelet. The beads selected for this piece are beautiful. Can’t wait to see the tutorials for this one. Celia
These planet beads are really amazing! I love the texture and color. You do the type of wire work we would all aspire to create. I love looking through your shop. I havent seen these beads anywhere, will you be retailing them or know who is going to sell them. Where are they mined? I love neat gems. Do you think they would be like opals and sensitive to heat and cold because they are porus?
Hi Barbara, I had never seen these previously either so I don’t know much about them other than they are porous. I also made a ring and when I washed my hands, the stone turned very dark blue but once it dried it was its original color again. If you would like to buy some, I can get sizes and prices for you. I am going to be writing a tutorial for this bracelet and also have a kit available soon!
OOHH I love that! How pretty! My kind of jewelry. Thanks for the giveaway!
Really love the beads. Immediately I wanted to touch them to feel the roughness. The coiling looks perfect!
Your blue bracelet is yummy! I too want to touch the beads. Would be honored to win your pearl and leather bracelet. Thanks for sharing your work with us
hi, love the contrast of elements…the organic rough porous stones with the modern silver focal component….blue is my fave color,so love the blue with the silver combo…always nice to see something different..I create an eclectic mix of jewelry,too,and wish I could afford to go to the huge bead n’ gem shows in my area…maybe next year

totally organic. i wish i had it to wear every day by the beach swimsuit and all.
love your work. checked your artfire shop. great craftsmanship and great design!
This is an awesome bracelet and my wife get complements on it all the time from friends and complete strangers. Nice work!!!
Thanks Michael!!! I was wondering if you ever received it and if your wife liked it. Maybe my son will draw your name and then your wife will have two LOL!
What really sets that bracelet apart for me is the texture. The beads and the metal together make a really beautiful textural mix of smooth and curvy and rough. Very cool!
Wow, the wire wrap is so intricate and such a great detail! Love the focal bead – it actually allows it to be both casual and more dressy because of its uniqueness!
LOVE the bracelet!! I really think it’s a winner, the bead choices are fab when mixed in the bracelet…I”d love to wear it!
Jules, I love the icy blue look of your Blue Planet bracelet. I agree would look great with jeans. Nice work.
I love this bracelet! It’s feminine and masculine at the same time, and elegant and rustic!
The beads you’ve used in the Blue Planet bracelet are amazing. I love that focal bead. It’s a bit modern and a bit classic, all in one. I dunno if I’d wear one every day, but I can see how you can definitely dress it up or dress it down, and who doesn’t love versatile jewellery? Thanks for this lovely giveaway!
I really enjoy both bracelets. The Blue Planet bracelet would look great with jeans. The leather and pearl is also awesome and I would absolutely love to win it. You have a wonderful site! Keep up the good work!
And now if I could only find where I put the Blue Planet bracelet LOL! I wanted to wear it today and I looked everywhere. Guess one of my cats hid it somewhere or maybe the dog ate it…..
the blue planet bracelet is gorgeous!!! I kind of wish that was the giveaway
But I do really like the leather and pearl mix too. Thanks for doing a great giveaway!!
Blue is not my thang, though the central bead (sterling over copper) is way cool.
LOVE the greek leather, pearl, and sterling wire one though… I am into leather and sterling. Hope I win! Thanks for the chance!

I like the planetary rings you wrapped around a couple of the beads!
I love this wonderful bracelet!I would love to wear ,you can wear it with jeans or dress up. Love it!!
Such a unique piece! Love the soft blues mixed with silver – and the clasp is gorgeous!
Oh wow awesome I love it so pretty and stylin but mellow too great blend of color and texture
) add me please
Ooooh I am not usually fond of non-neutral colors in my jewelry, but I love the subtlety of this one. It is elegant yet casual. It does look like it’d go well with just jeans but also would add a bit of class to a fun dress.
love the beads in your blue planet bracelet, and i especially love the clasp! i’ll enter the drawing for the leather & pearl bracelet too! … heard about it on twitter
i love the bracelet, you can dress it up or wear it casual. beautiful.
I love this bracelet. I want to learn how to make it!
Thanks, Susan! I will be writing a tutorial before the end of August for this bracelet and also offering kits, too!!

I love the Blue Planet Bracelet , love the band agate very cool beads!!and i loved how you coiled around those, and the silver focal on there is very unique , everything goes awesome together , Just love it Jodi!!
I love your Blue Planet bracelet!! Simple but elegant. I dig it!
I love the outer space look of this bracelet. The roughness of the blue beads combined with the texture of the silver wire really sets it off nice. Please count me in for your Aug. drawing. Thanks – Donnie
Blue banded agate is good for the throat chakra, repelling and curing infections or soreness. Agate, in general, aids meditation, achievement of serenity, and self-confidence. An excellent choice.
Hi. This is a beautiful bracelet. It looks ethereal. It also looks very different with varied lighting as shown in your photos. Very nice.
Please enter me in the August drawing. Thanks.

Jodi I just looked at your new bracelet and was really intrigued by the fine detail of the wire wrapping. The bracelet is beautiful, and gives me inspiration to use some of my beads to creat a lovely piece such as yours.
Wilma
