Most of us are looking for accessories that we can wear for multiple occasions and across the seasons. I am so pleased with this necklace and earring set. The copper is great with clothes in summery yellows, oranges, pinks and reds. Then the copper is equally good for fall browns, golds, rust and plum colors. It all hinges on these warm glowing shimmery square Czech glass beads. These are square and backed with a bright copper metallic color. The top of these beads are glass so the copper shines through and just glows.
I chose soft white shimmery freshwater coin pearls to compliment the coppery glass beads, and then added champagne and amethyst color faceted Czech crystals to give a touch of color. Wear this
necklace with a dress or shirt with a scoop neck, or place it over a sweater in the fall. The
earrings can go with just about anything.
I must admit, I am not always thinking about this type of versatility when creating a new design. If you are a jewelry designer, do you try to create items that are versatile either regarding colors or transitioning seasons? From a marketing perspective, do you prefer to create lots of neutral pieces or do you design mostly with colors that are trendy, fashionable, etc.?
Even though I like to be aware of trends and seasonal colors, I tend to make my beads and jewelry with colors that make me happy and that I think will make others happy.
