Color Inspiration - Maui Moments

by Kristal Wick
The only thing better than creating beach-themed jewelry in the middle of -15 degree frigid Minnesota winters is actually walking on that beach in person!
Many years ago, I was fortunate enough to dig my toes in that sand, Wailea beach on Maui is beyond breathtaking! Well, any beach on Maui falls in that category IMHO!

The silty beach sand has a soft, warm, buttery feel between your toes. Combined with the beautiful blue waves and expansive sky, you're relaxed in moments. Once you've been there it's impossible to forget that feeling.

I used some patinated charms for this bracelet, embellished with freshwater pearls and four different colored crystal beads to create a beachy aesthetic.

I also incorporated 3 different metal colors in silver, antique rose gold and antique gold for a vintage vibe effect. Toss on a lobster clasp, keeping with the ocean theme, and you're out the door!

Creatively,
Kristal
