Cool new metal-stamped jewelry designs coming soon!!

Fall Color Trends

Monday, July 20th, 2009

PANTONE Inc., the world’s color authority, has released it’s expert color forecast for Fall/Winter 2009/2010 through an online bead company I use called Fire Mountain Gems. I know. Who wants to think about Fall when it seems as if Summer just started! The next season of colors has been put into 3 groups called “Weather Patterns”. Global Warming has a little of every color. Greenhouse Effect is mostly blues and greens and Sandstorm is an assortment of natural/neutral colors. These color palettes can be used to create some awesome jewelry. My favorite is the Greenhouse Effect!
