| Beautiful work!! I have trouble finding bracelets small enough to fit my wrist. I tend to need a 5 1/2" to maybe a 6" bracelet, anything bigger just slides right off!
How long does it take to make one bracelet? I have a feeling you will be very busy! |

Location: ia | thanks guys! i'd be honored to make you guys one! i was thinking $20 should cover the cost of shipping and all the hardware. i'll send back any hair that i don't use. i'm waiting on some charms/clasps to get here....actually.....i'm waiting on 57 different packages off ebay. yes.....i might need an intervention. lol. i'm going to get an email together this afternoon, with the different colors/charms....all the info you need. get me your email, and i'll get it to you! thank you all so much....!
i'm so glad my wrists are normal! if i wore it tight, it would be about 6", but i like them loose....so i thinik i'd be about a 7. thanks for the help! |

I have a horsehair bracelet and mine is 7 inches long. my wrist is 6.25 inches around. I love the length of my current bracelet. I'm thinking of having one made for christmas for my mom who lost her "once in a lifetime" horse this past spring in a freak accident |
