Platypus Memorial Bracelet

I made this loom bracelet because I watched a platypus documentary the other week and the 2 platypuses they were tracking died from human interference. I was devastated. So I decided to make this bracelet as a memorial. Those poor babies.

I made this second one as well for a matching anklet.

Thanks for looking!

Cool bracelet and anklet, even if the inspiration was sad.

Thank you! We will just send our love out to the other platypuses and hope for better zoning. :heart:

I admire anyone who can do beadwork. It kills my eyes, but is so beautiful!
I love platypuses too. That documentary sounds sad, but a needed wake up call.

It was a PBS documentary. I think it was Nova. Like a few days later I saw clips from it on Instagram. :confounded_face: Like it was there to haunt me. :sob:

I did this on a bead loom so itโ€™s a bit easier than other bead work. And faster.
