Focus On Life 52 Photos: Hues of Blue

I thought I would jump in this week to participate in Studio Sublime's Focus On Life 52 Photos. I recently created this bracelet and earring set and thought of it as soon as I saw her prompt: Hues of Blues. The color blue evokes many ideas and meanings. It reminds me of both a sunny summer day near the ocean and a cool winter afternoon during a snowfall. Both are serene in their own way. 

This bracelet and earring set was inspired by the Greek Isles and the
vibrant hues of the blue and teal ocean that surrounds them.




bracelet: rhodium plated brass square link chain; Ever Luxe, Greek ceramic discs; Rings & Things, white brass heishi spacers; Fire Mountain Gems, Tierra cast toggle; Lima Beads.
earrings: sterling silver wire; Rio Grande, Greek ceramic discs, white brass faceted beads; Hands of the Hills
