Colour Play #1 – Flowers

chakra flower necklace

This month Colour Play is all about flowers!

I have been making necklaces with these beads for a while now, and just recently I have simplified the design! They are now a bit easier to make, and a bit prettier to wear too.

The studs are a perfect pop of colour as we head towards cooler weather here in Australia.

Anyway, here is the first colour play in the series. Of course…it’s the colour wheel, rainbow, chakra combination. If you’d like to check out the shop, click here.

Colour Wheel Jewellery #4

What a lovely time I have had with Colour Play for this month. I have made all sorts of necklaces and earrings with the Colour Wheel as the theme! These pieces are available for sale in my online shop.  If you are interested, here is a recap of the previous weeks.

It was all about colourful hearts in Week 1.

Week 2 showcased some etched colourful beads to create a simple and stunning necklace.

And in Week 3 the beads went a bit dotty!

This week it is the rather elegant fine silver wire beads that I am sharing. I love how these colours work, and the silver wire makes them really sparkle. Enjoy! Next week…new jewellery.

Colour Wheel Jewellery #2

Last week I shared with you the first of the colour play series for January!

This week, I have a new necklace and earrings based on the colour wheel to share with you.

I have taken one of my favourite styles of necklace, and made that into a colour wheel necklace. I have etched the beads, and given them a matt finish, just for something a bit different. The silver beads add a real sparkle to the necklace.

The green earrings are bright and cheerful, and also very comfortable to wear.

Check out the jewellery in the shop now.

Colour Wheel Jewellery #1

In between all of the recycled glass jewellery, I have also found some time to put together a new collection of colour wheel jewellery to start the year! I am a huge fan of the colour wheel, and I really like making these necklaces. I have talked to lots of people about them, and everyone sees them slightly differently. Some people see rainbows, others see chakras, and more recently people have seen marriage equality represented in these pieces. For me, it’s all about the colour wheel. Shop the collection now.

Colour Wheel Necklaces with fine silver wire details

This is my last post about the Colour Wheel.

I have really enjoyed playing with all of the different colours, and types of beads, and making all sorts of different pieces of jewellery.  I love the colour wheel, and I love playing with colours.

Thanks for giving me a chance to show you some new work.  Next month, something different again.  A closer look at recycled glass, and the different colours.
