spiritual vanity bracelet

last friday i made a spiritual vanity bracelet. it has a number of shortcomings:

1 - it's too big. i need to use different spacers so it will not keep falling off. also, i should have stretched the internal thread a bit before tying it off.
2 - some of the wrapping on the tail is coming undone. i attribute this to the fact that i've never done one of these before and had no guidance in the matter besides my own spiritual vanity.
3 - now that i've had time to consider the symbolism of the thing, i think i'd prefer some different colors for different parts. the visible parts all have appropriate colors/symbolism, but the internal thread (which is visible because it stretched) should probably be changed.

i might actually buy some more thread (the cheap component of the thingy), some new spacers (or remove a couple of them, i think i could get away with just that) and remake the thing.
