Cobalt Czech Glass Beads Make a Great Bracelet


I started making this bracelet and soon I saw that I needed more. So I added a strand and I added a strand and then I added two more strands! It turned out great!

Czech glass beads are made in the Czech Republic. I am amazed at the length of time that beads have been made in that region. I found a story on the internet that told of shop keepers hiding their formulas from the Nazis during World War II. So many things affect so many other things that you don't think of - like how a war would affect the beading industry.
It's simply amazing to me.
