Color Inspiration - Sunset at the Cabin

by Kristal Wick
My cousins have a cabin on Clearwater Lake in Annandale, Minnesota and we enjoy many family events during the summer. The kids learn to waterski on that lake, we kayak and boat on that lake and it's filled with many summer fun family memories.

This color inspiration was used to create the jewelry-making pattern: Sunset at the Cabin Wrap Bracelet
I snapped this pic on my last visit this summer and the sunset turned out so pretty I had to use it for a Color Inspiration DIY.

I love the contrast between the coppery sunset and light wisteria-colored sky. I grabbed some pearl chips from my stash that were the perfect match.

I also wanted to add texture and accentuate this contrast by using sparkly crystals and pearls with the textured copper "bones."

You can wear this project as a necklace or wrap bracelet!

Creatively,
Kristal
