Would you believe this colorful pair of button earrings is handmade by threading one crystal and glass bead at a time? That is exactly what Mexican artisan Adriana Trejo does very patiently in order to craft these handsome star-shaped earrings in energizing aqua, yellow and orange, which feature a 14k gold-plated brass base, post and clasp.

Unleash your unique style with this lively duo of wrap bracelets boasting an energizing color palette dominated by orange, purple, brown and yellow hues. Shimmering crystal and glass beads, meticulously interwoven by Guatemala's Domingo Reanda using a specialized bead loom, make these vibrant designs come to life. Gleaming Tibetan-style pewter buttons add a fashionable final touch.

Artisan Domingo explains, "In the creation of these bracelets, my inspiration was drawn from two distinct color palettes. For the first bracelet, I combined earthy tones with metallic hues, symbolizing the grounding essence of the present moment and the promise of abundance. I wholeheartedly believe that focusing on positive thoughts and nurturing an attitude of gratitude is a powerful way to beckon more abundance into our lives, whether in the realm of emotional well-being or in material aspects such as wealth and possessions. This bracelet serves as an open invitation to embrace a positive and appreciative mindset, a companion you can carry with you at all times.

In crafting the second bracelet, I carefully selected vibrant tones interwoven with metallic hues, signifying the radiant energy of the present moment and the protective shield against negative influences and physical harm. It is my sincere hope that this bracelet will stand as a perpetual reminder to maintain a positive perspective and to live fearlessly."
