Chunky Bangle Bracelet by BuyMyCrap.
"Bird on a Wire II."
This has a different patterning than the original Bird on a Wire, as well as different colouring.
We combined the durability and fun feel of transparent resin with an invigorating vibrant green hue, while sweet silhouetted birds rest high above our heads on telephone wires to create a sweet little bangle that is fun, fresh and funky.
Dimensions:
Internal Diameter -- 2 1/2"
Height: 1 5/16"
We created our own silicone mold for this piece.
Listing is for Bird On a Wire II bangle only. The other bangles in the 5th photo are just a sampling of other pieces in our shop. This bangle is made to order.
We do not use artificial "shine" on ANY of our resin pieces such as varnish, top coat, clear glaze, floor polish etc . The luster you see is created using good old fashioned elbow grease and finely gritted sand paper!
Please note, this piece is created with resin and acetate. The images appear brighter when on your wrist or under bright light. When not being worn the images/colours are much paler and more transparent.
THE PROCESS: Made completely by hand. I spend time creating my own molds for my bangles before pouring pigment tinted resins. After the resin has been poured and it has cured, I then sculpt to find the overall shape of the bangle before I start the sanding process. This takes time and patience, and a steady hand. The final stage of each bangle is polishing to a brilliant shine.
Each bangle is time consuming, but it is always fascinating to watch a bangle evolve, take shape, and I enjoy seeing how the graphics and resin melded together in the mold.
