Play to beat the BLAHs

Hey bead friends! I've had the blahs for making new combos--maybe my "2014" permanent bracelet or this month's sale hauls have me creatively and emotionally (and $$) spent Very Happy

...I tried to mimic someone's recent pinks and blues combo on here (wish I could find it--seems like there was a blue petals on there scratch

) and when that didn't fly, tried Trollperle's "back to the roots" approach, but no still success Mad

Here are my attempts... sunny

pinks and blues...

it seems to always work when Trollperle throws in a coral opal or engraved glass, but not so much for me! Razz

was lucky to snag a fairy fn at a deep deep discount at TBs Studio cheers

and have been mainly wearing her plain, no beads. Gradually added these beads for kicks...

then thought maybe they'd save the b'let...

I though all were nice, but I do really like the two that use the coral opal! Perhaps because it's like a little bit of sunshine sunny

They are all very pretty. The first one speaks to me the most.

Lovely designs - the first one is my favourite Smile

I feel honoured that I inspired you Hug

And I am not sure - maybe the coral opal will work nearer the fossil one. And please rest assured -many an hour has been spent with my beads with many a „blah“ moment, as well. Sometimes I let them stew and then it clicks and in the end it was only one bead that was off (and it might take me days on end to realise it) Smile
