Kandi Kreations

 NOTE: Picture-heavy post - may be best viewed on a computer or tablet rather than a mobile phone.

I promised my friends that I would write a post featuring Lizzy's Kandi art. For those not in the know, Kandi is jewelry (usually bracelets) or other creations made from pony beads (plastic beads in different colors and/or alphanumeric symbols). It started in rave culture, where people would trade single-strand bracelets ("singles") with others, and has spread to everything from small jewelry pieces to full-on clothing and other accessories.

Lizzy would be thrilled to take commissions (prices below) to further fuel her beading habit, and examples are shown.

So without further ado, have some great examples of pony bead art (descriptions attached)

A pyramid of each of the Mane Six My Little Pony
friends (Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Twilight Sparkle,
Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy) on
rotating cuffs in their signature colors.

Cuff Trio: rainbow (six colors in pastels), fire (yellow shading
through orange to red), and purple-green Spike again.

A set of three Shaker Cubes, in black/purple, pink/white,

rattling sound. Great for fidgets! (NOT for babies)

I've used too many exclamation points. I'm excited!
