Here's a behind-the-scenes look at how my creative process goes sometimes. This bracelet started from the colors I found at the bead shop - specifically the little 3 millimeter magatamas. Their color and shape reminded me of the bubbles and froth that come up on the seashore (a refreshing transparent blue that hint of sandy undertones) - so from there the ideas flowed.
I got home and went through my beads and found another color for the deep-blue portion of my ocean, the lighter portion for the shallows, and the beautiful shimmery satin sandy color for the beach.
Yet another day I was sitting in the car waiting for a friend and found a friendly napkin on which to doodle my design - very official really. :-)
So here's just a little sneak peek . . . I'll post the bracelet when it's finished. (We'll see if it resembles the sketch at all - sometimes I just let the beads lead me and go with the flow, depending on what ends up being best at the time.)
I like the color combo - I'm curious how it will come out.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm curious too!!! :-) It's almost finished except for the clasp, which I'm still undecided on at this point. So hopefully it'll be finished and I will post it soon!!!
