Pretty Palettes :: June Reveal

This month's palette was full of fun summer colors.  I loved the big flat silver beads and I could not stop running my fingers over the colorful seed bead mix. :)  If you are ever looking to get inspired, check out the monthly Pretty Palettes challenge because Erin does such a great job of picking exciting, different palettes each month.  Here is the one for June:

I had time to make a few pieces with all of these beads.  The first thing I made was a necklace.  I like the asymmetrical look and for ease in wearing I put the clasp at the front by the pendant:

Next, I made a bracelet.  I gave it three strands and finished it with a lobster claw clasp.  I love this bracelet because I can see myself wearing it with lots of different things.

There were still lots of beads left so I whipped up a memory wire bracelet and added in some long turquoise colored pieces left over from another project.  I thought they made the bracelet a little more interesting.

Had a great time with the challenge.  Now I'm going to see what everyone else made and wait for the next one!
