Color Inspiration - Blue Cascade

by Kristal Wick
This beautiful flower came across my feed on Facebook and I saved it immediately. Something about the combo of blues and copper/ambers were very pleasing.
I especially loved the transparency of the leaves on this flower, and how they evoked the feeling of ocean waves - kind of like a cascading waterfall in the Caribbean.

I had fun stretching my design skills to translate this flower into earrings and ended up loving the cascading end result. Pearls add such class to any piece of jewelry and the texture of fresh water pearls really add movement to these earrings.
I used different colored pearls but the same effect can be achieved using all white pearls. They would make great wedding earrings don't you think?

Creatively,
Kristal
