Ocean Chaos Dreadlock Cuff or Sleeve.
This one is a special piece to me. I love, love, love the mysteries of the ocean. The colors of the sea, the rocks, the wildlife. I love the idea of the treasures, both human and earthly ones. When found a very old piece of jewelry that was falling apart I saw in it the colors of the ocean (in these beads). I bought this old piece and took it apart.
I was SOOOOO THRILLED! The pieces were multi-colored. The beauty of these beads glittering in my hands had such a strong effect on me. I just had to make a cuff. I couldn't imagine these shimmering colors anywhere but highlighting someone's hair.
They also came in various sizes and I couldn't be more thrilled at the funky way the shapes fit with each other. Look at how they sit together. That's why I have called the piece Ocean Chaos, because there is nothing about the piece or the ocean that is uniform.
The white (like seafoam) draws your attention to the piece and really helps the blue pop.
I hope you like the piece :)
