Color Inspiration - The Bend

by Nancy Chase
Once a railroad track, this paved path is now converted to a bike path/walking trail. The beauty of a weekend afternoon meandering the bends in the pathway with cyclists, people pushing baby strollers, dogs and their walkers, is something to look forward to as the days turn warm.
True sky blue, and verdant spring green, light amber grasses edging the pathway. A simple palette, yet enough inspiration for crystal beads to float in the centers of gently curved wires.

A double chain necklace, the inside chain size is slightly smaller than the outer chain. Hand-bent 18-gauge silver wire is gently curved, like the path in the picture. Light blue crystals, a translucent green center bead, amber beads, then clear rondelles, look to the clear sky of a lovely afternoon on the park trail. This long necklace is without a clasp. The 2 chains are held together around the center back of the neck with 3 copper jump rings connecting the chains. The beads slide easily on the wires.
