Pretty Palettes Reveal March 2017

Pretty Palettes Reveal - March 2017
 


I really struggled with this months Pretty Palettes color challenge.  The inspiration for March is a beautiful photo of tulips from Molly Schaller's garden but the color palette generated from this photo reminded me of Thanksgiving.






Here are my Bead Gallery® bead choices for this months palette -

Red dyed bamboo coral chips
Citrine semi-precious chip
Tiger eye stone chips
Dyed Howlite stone chips
Orange dyed quartzite stone chips

I pushed myself to use colors I am not comfortable with and I absolutely love the outcome!

Did anyone else have a hard time designing with this color palette?  I'd love to hear your comments.  Be sure to follow me on Instagram  for more daily inspiration.

  1. I adore the way the colours weave through everything you created. An excellent theme and approach when something feels out of your element. I have a tendency to mix the colours together instead of doing colour zones like you did here so it's encouraging to see because I did push myself to do the same

    1. Thank you Bijoux - I did color block this necklace. I wonder what it would of looked liked if I mixed the chips together.

  3. Perfection, Denise! I love how you found chip beads in all of the colors of the Pretty Palette. I think the earrings are my favorite because they look like they'd be perfect for summertime concerts and have a carefree boho feel. Thank you for playing along!

  4. Lovely set, and you'll be able to wear it with everything! Yes, I struggled, too. Mine didn't exactly evoke springtime either!
