Braided Leather Necklace: Brown With Copper Beads
This necklace is made from a unique style of braided leather, designed to sit flat along the wearer's neck. The looped edges are stitched together with additional cords in a corresponding color, and decorated with copper beads. I specially designed the closure to be adjustable so that the final length of the necklace is 16.5, 17, or 17.5 inches long.

Jewelry making and sewing are my hobby, and I am self-admittedly not a professional at this stuff. But I try my best, and if you are not in a hurry and see something you like, please feel free to contact me. I still occasionally make things!
Please give me 2 weeks to craft and ship, and 3 days for the shipping. Rushed ordered may attract more flaws.
Things such as awesome earrings, leather luxuries, and steam-powered sensations.
Every accessory is a good friend!
I always strive to live up to my name, which means Good Friend.
I am constantly tinkering with beads, baubles, wire, and leather, and a rarely make the same thing twice. I would love to make something that is your very own, unique piece!
The jewelry and accessories I create vary from simple, colorful bead and wires, to braided leather cord, to Steampunk gears and springs. My designs are based on natural forms, Celtic knots and spirals, and mechanics and clockworks. My stuffed letters are inspired by a gift I created for my sister when her first daughter was due. From there, I started making some for most of the little ones I knew!
My background is in landscape architecture, but I am always making things, braiding cord or spiraling wire or sewing, and my many hobbies inform my craft. I dance Scottish, I am involved in medieval re-creation, I make medieval costumes, and I am an archer. I also have attended Steampunk events and made several Steampunk costumes. Many my pieces work for either medieval or Steampunk, though some of the wire stuff is more modern. Mostly, I listen to the material and let it go where it wants to, drawing inspiration from the beautiful world around me.

Dec 20, 2014It was easy to work with the marketer. The price was a fair price but I am a bit unhappy with the finished project. It was not as seem less as I thought it would be for someone that has crafting experience. For what I needed the gift for it will be okay even with the flaws. The company overall always responded in a timely manner. Jeanette Z

Dec 11, 2012Bought an anklet for a friend for his birthday. It was made really quickly and I received it within one day, once she had finished making the product. It looks awesome, but the length was 8" instead of 8.5-8.75" at the clasp, like I had hoped for. But it's okay because he can also wear it as a bracelet. The craftsmanship is wonderful, and I would buy from Bonnamie again.

Mar 13, 2013Amy did an amazing job on my stuffed letters projects. I wanted three stuffed letters to use as a decoration in my son's room. Amy was able to match the color of the room with the fabric she used, was a pleasure to communicate with, and delivered everything in a timely manner. And the final product exceeded my expectations in every respect!
