La Primavera Bracelet

Hello Fabulous Beaders,

Every new design that I create has a story. Whether the story begins before the design is in the creative process or the story happens as the design develops. It is always an intriguing and exciting adventure.

In the case of this design, La Primavera Bracelet, the story was developing as I was beading. Watching the addition of each element reminded me of the famous painting by Sandro Botticelli, Primavera. The painting was commissioned between 1470 & 1480 by Lorenzo de’ Medici as a wedding gift for a cousin. This huge panel still resides in the Uffizi Museum in Florence, Italy, the original palace of the de’ Medici family.

Happy Beading!
