My Slave Bracelet Cuffs


These are the beautiful custom Slave Bracelet Cuffs that [livejournal.com profile] tutordennis gave me for the holidays, handmade by my friend and colleague Pamela Quevedo of TotusMel Tats. I utterly adore them. I have several other TotusMel pieces as well, and I've found all of her work to be professional and high-quality. You simply must see her other tatted lovelies! For the next week, she's hosting an anniversary giveaway on her blog, Needle Tatting and Other Nonsense.

More photos of my cuffs here.
