Something somewhere perked up my affinity for 70's looks and patterns lately. It may have been the many eras that come up throughout
Doom Patrol which we have been watching in the evenings. I needed to get out the graph paper and make something "quick" to work on. I was going to keep this design really simple with the detail of either side of the "rainbow" in only one place, but I decided to split it. I'm glad I did. I wore it yesterday and I think stripes most of the way around would have been a bit too boring for my taste.
I am still working on a pair of earrings that I'm happy with to compliment this bangle. The first design ended up looking too much like circles rather than a rainbow. They are really lovely on their own though.
The second pair of earrings are hitting closer to the mark, but I think I want a tiny bit of the off-white included in them. I do like creating a little asymmetrical feel to these; I think it could be even more drastic.
I'm taking a little longer to get mask orders made as I'm getting back to focusing on my usual work. It's nice to be back to beading in the evenings and getting to the end of my large Leaf Me Alone weaving.
