The inspiration for this item came from my loved one. I noticed that she held onto my bracelet and played with it for a few hours. I wanted to offer her something more stimulating. I have a wide variety of beads and buckles in my workroom to choose from. I enjoy making them and no two are alike.
She had Alzheimer’s and she played with hers a lot. She rolled her fingers over each bead or buckle. Comments from family members was that she loved it. It’s not just the textures she liked but also the shapes.
I did have a client who said her autistic teen daughter used it for her nightly wind down ritual. She would touch each object a certain number of times before bedtime.
It is not meant for young children. The various textures are a possible choking hazard.
I use a heavy 20 gauge wire to individually wire wrap each bead and then connect it to the others.
You can find them listed in my shop.
