Time of the Season

There's nothing like the turn of the seasons for filling you with a new impetus for designing, I find.  Now I've been making for several years, I find myself welcoming the return of certain palettes - I've just been revisiting pastel green with daffodil yellow and crisp white.  So what was I thinking, just the other day, when I made these?

Much as I love being led by the time of year, I do worry about making overtly seasonal pieces, that will, if they don't sell, start to look 'out of season'. Why I made autumn earrings in anticipation of spring, I don't know!  But I'd just received these delicious lampwork beads from Bluhealer and I've been loving these red picasso czech glass leaves and I couldn't resist! 

Hey ho!  If you fancy autumn earrings in spring, you can find them here.

I'm filling in for Kiersten today as she's under the weather. It's all slightly last minute, so I'm afraid it's a bit of a short post. To compensate, I'll leave you with this sonic treat, which popped into my head when writing this. I hadn't heard it for a stack of seasons, but it's still sounding fine!

Bye for now, Claire
