I don't know ...
I've been working on this bracelet for what seems forever now, and I'm still not sure it's right
Please help, all help is appreciated

Looks great to me! What about it is striking you as being off?

Re: I don't know ...
I love the colors, but I would just change the order of the glass a bit. Starting at aztec, keep those two the same. Then switch the next group of three with the blue petals. Keep middle group of three the same. Then swap out the sea urchin with the next group of three, and keep the last two the same.

Love the question mark shot, aren't we being creative on here today re pictures?!
(Sorry, can't help much with the design question, only the dark purple dillos strike me as odd in a way.)

The color pallette is beautiful. I think the colors are a little top heavy- seems it is realy light towards the clasp. As Eeyore suggested, maybe just switching a few of the glass around.

Re: I don't know ...
Been shuffling the beads around (again ...), took eeyore's advice. Better but still not there imho ... I think you're right Snork, the dillo's are too dark

Re: I don't know ...
In my humble opinion, I like it very, very much. It's very original and the colors complement evenly throughout the bracelet. Nice Design and great color theory.

Eeyore gave good advice, it's better balanced now.
I like the dark dillos, they add a spark.

Re: I don't know ...
I love the dillos! The part that sticks out to me is the middle blue part. I'd probably ditch that and through a couple of rubies in there mixed in with maybe another urchin!

Superb. That eeyore has such a good eye -- I often call on her for the same type of advice! This arrangement is just breathtaking. Thank you so much for sharing. OH, and I'm going to attempt to be a copycat if that's ok.

Re: I don't know ...
I think I would take out the blue beads, I feel they draw attention away from the other colours which are really complimentary. The dillos and azure bubbles are stunning!

Re: I don't know ...
I love all of your beads, but if I were to change anything, I would keep the blue beads, but scatter them. I'm sure this looks even more amazing on the wrist.

Ooooooh that's beautiful. I would try one of the Purple dillos in between the Beach beads, I think that would work better.

Re: I don't know ...
I like the result of Eeyore's suggestions. I do like the dillo's. They add punch. I do find the three blue beads that are together (including the two beach beads) a bit strong. I am wondering what would happen if the middle of the three blue beads was swapped with an Azure Bubbles from elsewhere in the bracelet. I am thinking the Azure bubbles that has a fair bit of purpley colouring in it.

Re: I don't know ...
Try switching the blue petals with the cool dusk..............or if you have two blue petals, use those in the center with a beach between them, and still put cool dusk where blue petals is currently.
If you still don't like it...........take the whole thing apart, and send me the two dillos!!!

Re: I don't know ...
I would swap one of the beach beads for a deep bubbles and move one of the dillos next to the sea urchin...it is lovely though....

Re: I don't know ...
Hm..... I think I need to see it IRL to make suggestions. Can you send it over to me ?
I love all the beads you´re using on there. But like Snork I think the dillos are a little bit too purple. A more lilac color could be better ?

I think this is stunning and I love those colours together! I would say to try moving the purple dillos one down and leave the two azure bubbles on their own at the end. I think the colour of the dillos will be picked up in the colours of the other two beads.

I love it as it is but I would remove the glass bead, third from the lock, Beach? I don't think it fits. Great purple dillos.
