Today is the second Challenge of Color Blog Hop, Erin Prais Hintz has organized it...The color I chose was teal, so I was very suprised to find that my color pallet was such a muted suttle one....It was created by Jessica Colaluca of Design seeds, http://www.designseeds.com/ and chosen for me by Erin , I have to admit, it wasn't a color grouping I would have chosen for my self, but it does work quite well, and the funny thing was I had all these colors in my stash of beads......In fact the two larger beads on each side of my druzy focal have every color in my pallet, I'm not sure what they are but they are quite beautiful! 
I chose to make a necklace, with a druzy focal, the two perfect stone beads on each side, some stick pearls in a pale peachy shade some pale teal fire polish I want to thank Erin for hosting such a fun blog hop!!!
Oh my, what a YUMMY looking palette. I would have had to eat a couple donuts a day if I would have been given that one!
ReplyDeleteYou managed to get all your colors in there using an interesting variety of beading materials! Well done!
The palettes are all so interesting and yours is so beautiful. Great that you managed to fit all the colours in your piece. It looks lovely.

ReplyDeleteFirst of all, that donut looks delicious - and so does your necklace! You made great use of your palette, and I really love the pop of the teal!
ReplyDeleteLove the color palette you were given. The green you used in your necklace really accent the earthy tones. Great job.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I love the focal and the teal interspersed with all the other colors.
ReplyDeleteOh I so love druzy!!!!! This is a gorgeous piece!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, your palette was YUMMY. Oh wait, that may just be the doughnut talking to me. Actually, I really do LOVE the colors Erin picked for you. And, you did a fabulous job including them in your piece. How lovely that you already had beads in the right shades, lucky dog!
ReplyDeleteTeal goes quite well with brown! In fact, I picked teal too and got pinks for my complimentary colors, and would have much preferred your palette! As you can see, it was quite easy to put together a lovely necklace in this scheme :)
ReplyDeleteI love your colour palette and you did a great use of it. Anyway, I love the doughnut as well!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! That's great you had those beads in your stash. Love the druzy.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous necklace! The druzy is beautiful. And I'm craving doughnuts now!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, that palette is right up my alley! And what you've done with it is lovely! That druzy is gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteHow lucky to find beads with all the colors of your palette! Great job - beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a great necklace! I love the stick pearls, and the focal is just awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great necklace! I just love teal and brown mixed together. It's actually the color scheme in my master bath.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool necklace! I love the earthy richness with the light almost creamy shade of teal! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny that it works out that way? I had all of the beads that I used in all of my palettes as well. This was fun, and I am glad that you chose to play along. In fact, you were the very first to sign up!
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking on the challenge of color with me!
Enjoy the day.
