Color Inspiration - Think Pink

by Nancy Chase
These beautiful blossoms caught my eye earlier this spring. It wouldn't be the summer of '23 if I didn't see a little bit of extra pink in the season !
Close-up photos reveal details a simple walk through the park might miss.

Subtle shades range from almost white pink to bright fuchsia in the petals, with many greens and golds surrounding them.

Sunlight casts a translucent glow and shadows across the greenery.

I like the color palette name, "Black Olive."

The deep green background adds depth to the frame.

Pink mother-of-pearl shell tile beads dangle from these fun summer earrings, some patterned like the flower petals.

Chunky jade serpentine gemstones anchor the design, mimicking the leaves and branches beneath the blossoms.

Small round Matuba beads, made of Czech glass from the glass-making region, add detail.

Dappled light on yellow leaves and flower stamens inspired the use of square crackle agate beads, with colors ranging from light brown to orange hues.
So add a little pink accessory this summer.

These flirty earrings are sure to start a conversation!
