Here is a pair of anklets I made recently, motivated by my friend Kashmira.
Kashmira gave a wonderful link where we could get some ideas about the size and the length of anklets, which I have lost now, but I remembered that it can be any where from 8 inches ( petite) to 10 inches ( large). I double checked it too .
This was made for a baby about nine months old, as a special jewelry gift for her auspicious Rice Ceremony. Rice Ceremony is when the baby eats the first solid food- ( or rice in our case ) in my culture. That is a day when a big party is called for.
Here, this little girl, Tara has her initial T as a charm in this anklet, and a tiny silver heart as a clasp. Her birthstone is peridot, so I chose that gemstone and pearls for good luck. These little things dangle from a pair of chains. One of the silver chains is just a normal rolo and the other sort of curved links.
The length is about 6 1/2 inch. So when she is older I hope she can also wear it as bracelets.
Now Kashmira did enthuse a bunch of jewelry designers like me in this project, so I am going to go browse all the other ankle goodies now. Come along with me.
