I agree, I think bracelets are much harder! Especially because I have kind of bitty wrists so if I spend too much room on a clasp I don't get to show off many beads. This is why I like elastic but I do enjoy the elegant drape of a knotted bracelet.
That is a good point about the bead being small enough....mine would not be so I am grateful you pointed that out.
I will have to look at those orbits. And I do love fish hooks as well, Maybe I should look back at the one I have.
I usually use gold filled which honestly wears pretty much like...
I'm having trouble finding a good looking toggle with a long enough bar.....I really like elastic bracelets for this very reason but I wanted something a little more "finished". Maybe I should stick to elastic lol
I wish I could find a clasp that I really like the look of that are also very secure. Any ideas for rustic-looking gold or gold filled clasps?
Also I just realized I have a horrible typo in my thread title, can any mod fix that please?
I should maybe re-visit toggles. I had a toggle watch as a teen I loved and never had an issue with, then I had a toggle bracelet that irritated me, and I got my mom a toggle watch she loves but she afraid to wear it in winter because she thinks her coat make might it come off without her...
I was always afraid of hook and eye clasps coming undone; I think I equated them with toggles and I have a love/hate relationship with toggles. Then I got my Catherine Cardellini necklace and fell in love with her hook and eye clasp. I love the way they look, and they suit my style very well...
