15-16.6.11 Veva's Zig-Zag Tila bracelet "Con una sola Tila" clasp



Looking for bracelets done with the new TILA beads, I found this gorgeous design by Gasar. I had to give it a go and indeed it is simple and impressing. I omitted the multicuts (in Gasar's design it is 4mm, but I would recommend on 3mm for best fit).
I thought to make a pair of earrings to fit with, using a scheme that a friend addressed my attention to. The free scheme is called "Con una sola tila" by "el alfiler de cristal" , meaning "for a sole TILA only". It is useful for using rests of TILA beads, so I thought I could hit 2 birds in one shot.
However, I found out that it would be really complicated to transform this motif to an earring, so I just left it as is and had in hand one more thing to join the endless unfinished projects I have.
However, thanks to Eshchar, asking for some attention from me :-) I had to sit and stop everything in order to be with him. It gave me the few minutes to THINK. Which consequently gave me the idea to transform the motif into a clasp. The result is super to my opinion :-) and I like so much this Bordeaux color. The final look of the bracelet gives an impression of leather on the skin which I really like.
