Saturday night, I was inspired in my sleep. I dreamed of a bracelet that looked like a flowering vine. When I woke up, I realized that I had some green floral wire, colorful leaf beads and flower beads. I immediately cut some wire and started twisting. Here's what I ended up with:

The ring is a little big.  It's loose on my thumb Smiley

This is a great idea! I think all the different beads you used are beautiful. I do think, however, that you could make this look even more like a vine by doing a few things just a little different. I'm thinking that if you twisted the wires a little looser it would seem more natural, and some of the branches could be a little longer. Also, you know how some vines have random little curly parts? I think if you twisted some "branches" without beads and then made them curly like that (think grape vines), it would look super neat.
