Color Blocking: Bangles

Color blocking is a big trend this spring.  Not wimpy, muted shades but bold brights and unexpected combinations are what makes it a fresh style.

These are examples from InStyle March 2011

While I don't normally work with beads, I couldn't resist using color.
A variation of my hammered silver bangles, embellished with glass beads.

These colors may loose some of their bold color in the photo but they are bright hues.

The bangles are available in my Etsy shop.  Click here to be taken to the shop.

My dear followers, I hope you have lovely plans for the weekend.  We will be attending the first Antique Market of the season on Saturday.  I'll be sure to fill you in on any spectacular finds.  We also have some invitations from friends for Friday and Saturday evenings.  Enjoy and relax.  XXOO
