glammed up metal cuff
i've seen several different cuffs like these online that were outrageously overpriced. granted most of them were made w/swarovski crystals (which accounts for the high price) but i decided to make my own out of acrylic stones/jewels which are much cheaper and equally as dazzzzzling.
