Wearable Color Chart

I've picked up plenty of helpful tips since I started receiving the newsletter so I thought it was time to share as well.

At a jewelry party this past week, I introduced a new crystal bangle bracelet and got an immediate custom order. It's the subsequent discussion about color preferences that was the inspiration for this sample bracelet.

After a quick run to my local supplier the next day, I picked up one of every shade available for colored crystal cubes I would use and made a series of single-loop dangles on head pins. They were strung on a foot of memory wire with seed bead in between to space them to hang properly.

The end result was a color chart that I can wear to future jewelry parties to make it easier to finalize orders.

The crystal dangles would also be quick to remove and replace as color palettes change.

A particularly nice bonus - prospective buyers can try the bracelet on to decide which colors they'd like.

Cheers
