Fall Beauty ~ A Timeless Piece

Autumn brings beautiful changes.  The trees and shrubs begin to change colors, and the green palette of summer foliage is transformed into the vivid autumn palette of reds, oranges, greens, golds, and browns.  The smell of morning dew is in the air, with shorter days and the evening brisk night air.  I can see, feel smell, and touch all of nature's beauty, amazing!!

Now onto more exciting news.  Members of the Artisans/Jewelry Designers Community, hold a contest every month called "Artisan Monthly Challenge."  This month I've entered in a jewelry piece from Muy Chic.  The contest is based on creating a piece that reflects the months' theme and voting for the best representation.  The theme this month is fall colors or scary for Halloween.  


My piece is named "FALL BEAUTY".  I created this timeless piece with the color palette of Autumn using reds, oranges, greens, golds, and browns. The dangling crystals and pearls reflect the colors of leafs as they fall from the trees and the Green Opal Gemstone is like the foliage, soil and moss. I love how the combination of earth tone colors and Antique Brass gives the bracelet a Vintage Chic look. Handmade with Swarovski Crystals, Czech Crystals, Green Opal Gemstone, Antique Brass Chain and Brass Findings.

Go to Artisan Challenge Blog to cast your vote. Voting will be from October 26 - 30
