Black Iris Memory Wire Bracelet

This was a particularly fun bracelet to do...I was having strange effects from my cold medicine this week (it was playing with my sense of balance and my vision rather than clearing out my cold-fogged head), so this was a particularly challenging piece with all the deep, vivid colors.  I love how it turned out though!  I used rainbow iris seed beads and one of my favorite natural stones, hematite, which always seem to work beautifully hand-in-hand.  Hematite is surprisingly heavy and has a cool, slick quality to it that I love in jewelry.  Hopefully the picture can speak for itself.
