Fall 2015 Color Inspiration

Carol Dekle-Foss
Is it too early to start thinking about fall colors for jewelry designs? I say heck no! The fall equinox is just around the corner, so even though temperatures are high, I think it's the perfect time to check out the latest color forecasts for inspiration. 


With that being said, it's more important to choose colors that reflect who you are as an artist. Colors can by very powerful by helping you express what feelings and moods you want to evoke in your designs. 


I like to get to know Pantone's latest colors by making these boards. This helps get my creative juices flowing!


Personally for me, these are not the colors I will be working with this fall. I am being drawn more to luscious warmer shades, like burgundy, deep wine and forest green. I've started a Pinterest board here with rich colors and beautiful textures that I want to experiment with this season.

Also, here are some ceramic beads and pendants hot out of the kiln today!



Ceramic bead shop update soon to come over the next few days!

So what do you think about Pantone's new Fall 2015 color line up? Also, whats your process of choosing colors for your designs? I'd love to hear how you come up with your color combinations!
