Color Inspiration - Playful Puppies

by Debbie Blair
My daughter's best friend and her family work with a local dog rescue organization to provide foster care for new puppies until a permanent home can be found for them. Once a puppy has been placed in a home, a new one (or more) arrives at the friend's house within a matter of days. So, as you can imagine, my daughter pleads with me almost daily to visit her friend's house so she can play with the puppies. What great therapy for her after a ho-hum day at school!
Gazing at this image of playful puppies is almost as satisfying as playing with the little critters in person. Almost, but not quite. I chose to pull from the photo a palette of greens, browns, and gray-blue. And since my palette is based on such an outdoorsy photo, I decided to incorporate a variety of ceramic beads that have motifs found in nature.

I hope this palette inspires you to create a bracelet or necklace full of earthy colors, perfect for any season!

Cheers
