Description (2013), 9"x4", Size 15 seed beads (silver-lined orange ab, transparent caramel) and size 11 seed beads (matte dark brown, black, silver-lined caramel ab, silver-lined light gold opal, silver-lined cream white opal) worked in Ndebele stitch, closure beads, focal glass art beads, fireline.

The yummy dots on this cream and brown focal bead reminded me of drizzled caramel, hence the title for this baby. Plus we just had a really nice coffee and crepe shop open in our neighborhood and the baristas always put little swirl patterns in the foam tops of the lattes that look a little like the brown and cream "eyes" on this bracelet.

If you want to learn how to makes these you can find the instructions or pattern here.

This is certainly a change for you! Coffee is definitely what comes to mind here--I can picture this warn with a warm cream or deep chocolate-colored sweater in the late fall.

Thank you! I wear a lot of earth-colors, greys, beiges and browns, so this will be a good accessory.

"Caramel Latte" is the perfect name for this piece and embodies all of its rich colors. Thank you for the pictorial layout which is very instructive for a new beader. Also your links to patterns and focal beads is priceless and provides such an added bonus to your work. Thank you for your willingness to share and teach others ... and for yet another inspirational project!
