The temperatures and the humidity are dropping in Georgia and there is a definite nip in the air. It's time to start thinking about fall. I've made an attempt to reproduce the Pantone fall colors in lampwork beads and here's the result:
As usual when attempting to reproduce the Pantone colors, its sometimes difficult to find an exact match in lampwork glass. The glass I have selected is as follows, from top left to top right (Effetre unless otherwise noted): Alabaster turquoise (352), Lipstick (CIM 140), Avocado green (210), Weimaraner (CIM 811), EDP (254), Leaky pen (CIM 508), Heat wave (420), Desert pink (CIM 957), unknown color (label lost in the move from Fort Wayne to Atlanta), Lichen (Vetrofond 986). All of the beads have a stringer of silvered ivory wrapped round the equator of the bead with silver wire melted in, and have been distorted out of round to add interest. They are currently on sale in my Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/DeborahDRoss.
