Crystal Bracelets

[FairyCrystal]

A few years back I bought a black tourmaline or tourmalinated quartz (can't remember now) elastic bracelet and also a hessonite one.
Problem being that the elastic used are very thin strands and over a short period of time these begin to break one by one until eventually the last one decides to give up and voila, all the beads are tinkling across the floor. ANd me crawling over the floor trying to find every last one of them.

I put them in a bowl, not knowing what to do with them. They've been sitting there for at least 5 years.
Then 2 days ago I bought transparent elastic so I can repair them :) I hope the elastic is thin enough but I think so.
It should arrive tomorrow, so with a bit of luck I can wear my bracelets again! Especially looking forward to wearing my hessonite one.
Not sure what's going on but I seem to really need hessonite at the moment.

I got the idea to do this as the last bracelet I bought -shungite- is on proper elastic, one piece, not thin strands so far more solid. And for some reason I have the sudden inspiration to fix the others.
Fingers crossed it's going to work out!! Can't wait to wear the hessonite again!
