So yesterday evening I was fully prepared to write up a new blog post about chocolate hazelnut cupcakes with coffee buttercream frosting until an idea popped into my head and, of course, once it was in there it steadfastly refused to get out until I started putting this bracelet together.
So rather than said cupcakes, today I will be sharing the fruits of my creative labor.
My brain and I need to have words.
In case anyone is wondering, the Hamsa is an amulet or talisman that is used as a symbol for protection; more commonly protection against the Evil Eye. It is also known as the Hand of Miriam or the Hand of Fatima.
As I was finished the chain to make the bracelet, I decided to use two silver bell charms – bells have long been used to clear the energy of an area and to purify it which I thought tied in nicely with the Hamsa and the blue eye beads; which are also used as protection against the Evil Eye.
