Some of my Favourite Designs from 2014

I did this last year and really enjoyed picking out some of my favourite designs from 2013, so now that the Dr Who special has been watched and I have at least digested some of my Christmas Dinner from yesterday... time to look back and pick out some favourites from 2014.

I've actually picked out 3 designs from this month but I guess it's not that unusual that some of my current favourites might get a mention!

From January I loved my first bracelet after buying some Story Charms...


Next up was my Sky at Night bangle from February...


Also from February was my special Bangle for Jess inspired by my first Ohm Bead; Love Hurts...


From March I love the pairing between my Bali Clicks Bracelet with my Winter Beach Bracelet...


April was a manic month as I blogged my way from A to Z.  It's hard to choose as there was a lot I loved from April, but if pushed I would have to choose the letters P and R... 



In May it could only be my lovely Trollbeads Carved Ambers...



Although I did indulge in a few new X by Trollbeads pieces to add to the stash including having enough links to have an all silver/bronze bracelet...


June was a #flashback month whilst I travelled abroad to surprise my family... my favourite from this month was popping my Naughty Dragon onto a bangle...


From July I have two absolute favourites that are still made up (a rarity for me), first up was a new all amber combo and my bus bracelet...



August saw the first World Trollbeads Day and I was keen to go see what all the fuss was about, bead play in the shop led to these two designs and a return of the carved ambers...


Come September it was back to X by Trollbeads...


October was a busy month design wise, but I guess I'd have to pick my Autumnal designs, yep, all of them!!


As the weather turned colder in November I wrote about lots of events and threw a little bangle together at the end!


In December I showcased my Winter Snow Bracelet (actually made in October as I couldn't wait), experimented with a colourful leather and a (very) long awaited project; my Spirit in the Sky Bracelet was finished... well the T minus 1 version was!




I hope you enjoyed my walk through 2014... this turned out a little longer than I'd anticipated... I guess I had a really good time playing with my beads in 2014!

What were your favourite designs from 2014?

  1. My favourites of yours are your bus and your Spirit in the Sky bracelets. :) I know how happy our camper made us this year, so I can imagine how happy your bus has made you. And that is reflected in your bracelet for it. :) And I love the colours (and all of the skeletons!) in your spirit in the sky bracelet.

    Of mine, I'm a bit enamoured with my s'mores bangle right now. I really like my St. Patrick's Day bracelet too. And my zombie bracelet.

    1. I found it really hard to pare down to only this many favourites; I've really liked a lot of what I've made this year... the fact that the bracelets are staying made up for so long when I'm usually so fickle I think is a testament to this... either that or I'm lazy, or both!

      I really can't decide what's next on my list yet :)
