Color Inspiration - Vail Village

by Debbie Blair
One of my favorite places to visit year-round is Vail, Colorado. With architecture inspired by the mountain villages of Bavaria, this beautiful town offers some of my favorite summertime adventures, like mountain biking, exploring hiking trails, or simply basking in the sun on an outdoor patio with a cold beverage in hand. And though I don't like to ski, I still enjoy visiting during colder seasons, too. Winters in Vail provide a special charm--when it snows, it feels as if the world has turned into a magical snow globe.
This photo of Vail and its chalets reminds me of the times my husband and I have strolled down the stone walkway through the center of town.

I chose a color palette of blues, greens, and yellows to create a memory wire bracelet featuring African jade rounds, pressed-glass, and faceted-glass beads.

The mix of bead finishes adds texture and creates a fun, wearable bracelet that pairs perfectly with any outfit.

Cheers,
Debbie
