Black "rocks" Necklace, Earrings and cuff

Hi All - 0h well you'll have to bear with me as it seems that since my last post and after being with Blogger for 6 years they have gone and TOTALLY changed the format on me in the entry composing area.........grrrr- I HATE change :( So I have no idea what this entry is going to end up looking like! - it's all a bit hit and miss... any way continuing with the "Textile projects from a photo" - here is the "Cuff"...
Apparently I can now type in between the pictures - but maybe when I press the publish button it could be anywhere! LOL ....we will see...
Another pic of the cuff - this time with the buttons and cords on... 
 from the front....

Finger's crossed that this entry will look halfway decent hehe!.....
