An expert in the art of bead jewelry making maintains that
problems in the craft may pave the way for the birth of unique
design elements. Take for example her experience with designing a
bracelet out of jasper and copper. Jasper drill rings are unpopular
with crafters because they are generally unattractive and not
conveniently
functional.
She chose a colorful bead combination of red, brown and green
jasper drill rings for her bracelet design. However the result of
her effort looked appalling. She decided to try another style to
salvage her project. She experimented with copper to compliment the
colors in the jasper drill rings.
The results were
dramatic.
The element of copper blended the colors
of the jasper drill rings and transformed into a stunning
masterpiece. She even accented the bracelet with copper wire. She
discovered that the key to working with any element when it comes to
bead jewelry making was in the harmony and blending of the colors.
The abundance of materials in bead jewelry making
gives you plenty of opportunities to experiment. All you need is
