Color Inspiration - Spring Soccer Season

by Debbie Blair
My daughter has played seasonal soccer the past several years, which runs for about eight weeks each fall and each spring. My favorite part of being a spectator is just being outdoors, soaking up the warm sunny weather on the luckiest of days. Fall can bring snowstorms, so those are the game days when I sneak back to my car during halftime and run the heater to thaw my feet. I always adore watching the youngest players out on the field, running and kicking with all their might, anxious to be able to play like one of the "big" kids.
This photo of a young soccer team reminds me of the warm, carefree days spent outdoors watching my daughter's team. The color palette I derived from the photo inspired me to make a wire-wrapped bangle bracelet, full of earthy colors. I used 26-gauge wire to wrap small beads around a section of 20-gauge wire, arranging the color pattern so the beads blend from gold and brown into shades of greens and blues.

I hope this bangle inspires you to take time to soak in whatever it is that you enjoy about the outdoors.

Cheers!
