Things were not looking good for the zigzag this morning. So I took a couple quick photos just in case it was its last day on my wrist. I realize a very tiny few of you know what I am talking about. And that those few might not even be reading this. But I had to post anyway.
I used C-Lon thread to stitch this bracelet on my wrist almost 3 years ago...June 17, 2016. I hoped it would last a week-long vacation in Maine. I am in awe of what all this bracelet has been through and all it has endured.
Water alone seemed enough to do it in ~ salt water, lake water, chlorinated water, shower water, dish water, and anyone who knows me even a tiny bit knows how I obsessively wash my hands.
What really surprised me was that I knew the moment it left my wrist. I always thought that it would come off suddenly in a lake or during another dorm move and I would notice hours later and never see it again. But it was gradual over the past week. I could see the end nearing. And the end was right here at home...where it began.

Thanks for sharing this whole experience ... I'm glad it left you at home, maybe it knew you could put it someplace else just as special and safe.
As soon as I saw the picture on FB of the "loose beads"...I knew exactly which bracelet, and which blog post this referenced! Wow - 3 years (well...almost 3 years)....that's pretty amazing!
Wow that was a great test for the thread and the seed beads. Four days shy of three years is awesome for a dainty bracelet that you have not taken off since its creation. Bravo,
Therese
Such a tiny, delicate and beautiful thing!
Beautiful!!Happy that you were able to enjoy it for so long. I always loved that bracelet..delicate and elegant! Hugs, B
4 days shy .... one day for each year it lived ... and an extra for good luck. Gradually, slowly at home where it began .. what a beautiful line. It was a simple beauty that will be missed and felt (ghost zig zag!) for some time
