Gravitating towards color schemed bracelets

I haven't blogged for a while. And well, I have made more jewelry than these 4 bracelets over the last few weeks. And in different color schemes too. But yesterday, when I got about to take some photographs of some of my latest creations I just saw that a few of them shared this kind of color scheme with ivory, white, greens and yellows. And I thought it might be a nice idea to present them as a group.

Necklaces

Well, over the last couple of weeks I have pushed myself to start making more necklaces again. For a long period it feels like I have been making almost only bracelets. I think the main reason why necklaces doesn't happen all that often for me unless I conciously think about it, is my always messy and crowded work table. There is simply only such a small area I can use when I work. 

Now I am in love with making necklaces again. And I also love how these two turned out.

Necklace - I Want To Fly Away

• Balloon pendant - Jade Scott
• Elongated boat shaped wooden beads
• Different kinds of seed beads in green and brown tones
• Copper findings and a copper magnetic ball clasp

Necklace - Near

• Near, pink word bead in polymer clay - SomethingToDoWithYourHands
• Copper flower clasp - DaisyChainExtra
• Copper chain
• Pink opalite elongated 6-sided beads
• Copper heishi ring beads
• Waxed linen cord, dark rust

I wasn't inspired by the Hubble telescope as such when I was making this bracelet. But when it was ready and I was taking the photos, and about to give it a name I came to think of the crispness of a beautiful night sky when you can see more stars than ever. And so I simply came to think of Hubble.

New in shop - groups of beaded beads

I have so many beaded beads just piling up and not yet listed in my shop. So now I have decided to start selling them in larger groups instead of one and one. One reason is that it will simplify the process for me, so that I actually get around to list my beads (as you might remember I have mentioned that I have had a slight problem with this part of my business in the past).

Another very important reason is that I hope and believe that this will be more attractive for buyers in more than one way. The group price will be reduced compared to what I would charge for them singularly. So you will be able to make some very good deals :-)!

I sincerely hope and wish that this will turn out a good plan for all parts.

I will start off by listing the 6 groups below. You will find them in my Etsy shop tomorrow Thursday at 18.00 Swedish time, which equals 12.00 EST.

Ivory with bright colors.

Maroon and muted purples.

Pink, ivory and oranges.

Cornflower blue and golds.

Greens.

Browns, golds and beiges.

Please welcome tomorrow to my Etsy shop!


All my best,
Malin
