studious reflection. any thoughts? bracelet advice.

I would really appreciate your thoughts here. Honestly, I'm not a bracelet person. Haha, I was never much of a watch person either because I kept washing them [yes, more than once &, no, not sure how I managed it!]. Of course these days, that's what the handy-dandy [notebook, err...] cellphone is for [Blue Clues -Steve style- was catchy. I make no apologies].
~~~~~~~~~~
Right, I'm rambling again. So. I'm not a huge fan of bracelets...so don't worry about hurting my feelings here. What do you think of the bracelet above? Now, I haven't finished this...meaning I took these pictures without trimming &, honestly, this particular bracelet has sat on my desk in the sidelines for about a week partially finished and collecting fabric lint. And I know they're not the greatest photos, but since I'm in uncharted territory I'd love to know what you guys think.
~~~~~~~~~~
As you can see in the very top image, the flowers are up next to one another when flat. When I put the bracelet on, they "separate" & the bead work is slightly visible. Does this look okay? The flowers can't be worked closer together or else they'll be bunched up, ruffled & won't lay smooth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[again, I haven't cleaned up...so please don't deduct points for that!] Now, here's my big wall. My wrist only measures 6" & the average is something like 7.5". I made the prototype at 7" & still closed it on a couple links in. But, my small wrist isn't everyone's problem so I thought about including another clasp [they're not chunky-sized]. This way, the length could be somewhat adjusted from approx. 7-8". Again, I'm curious to know if you think this works, or is it too funky? Or, would it just be best to make them at 7.5" & leave it at that?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or, do you think they're just a bad idea all together & should be scrapped?

Leave me comments-a-plenty, please!
