Color Inspiration - Juniper Berries

by Nancy Chase

Today's color inspiration comes from a morning walk in Trammel Fossil Park. Though the fossils were fascinating, and a great discovery, I was drawn to the bright blue juniper berries, and rich evergreens on the trail. They smelled so piney, and herbal.

The colors in the soft daylight played with my imagination.

I fashioned this wire cotter pin chain bracelet with glass beads to reflect the colors in the juniper bush.

Tree shaped green beads are threaded with 22-gauge wire to create the dangles.

Multi-colored blue beads reference the various shades in the berries. 20-gauge round rose gold wire makes up the chain. A handmade clasp finishes the delicate design.

Creating, gifting, selling my original jewelry designs to friends, and clients over the years, I know how timeless a well made piece of jewelry becomes. There are always trends, innovations, novel materials to work with - curiosity about new tools and supplies. Inspiration comes from my love of the outdoors, practicing yoga, gardening and cooking. It is wonderful to share techniques and make connections with other people who appreciate handmade crafts.
