Margie and Me - Owl Feathers #218

Okay, this week, I chose to dig into the back of Margie's book in the Living Color section. This happens to be the place where I'm most lost.

I normally get my inspiration from art or nature (as in landscapes), but when it comes to things that creep, fly, or crawl, I'm at a loss, so... when I flipped to #218 and saw the neutral tones of the barn owl, I thought it would be the perfect fall-on-the-brain project.

I used this handy-dandy color palette generator, (thank you Missficklemedia) to create this color palette. I really want you guys to be able to play along even if you don't have the book. (I do, however, recommend the book, it's the ONLY beading book that I own which does not sit on my shelf, but my beading table.)

So, here's the color palette for this week. Now, I must add that Margie puts that beautiful creamy yellow color that you see under the spots around his face as a background, and adds a little shimmery copper to the mix.

I do hope you'll play along. Ms. Elisabeth did last week, and I must admit I was totally taken by her piece. It was perfect.

Okay, here are the sale pieces for today: Rustic Turquoise Ring and...

The Stellar Necklace. (that's STELLAR...not Stell-uh!! as Rocky would say...or cellar, which is where you keep um...well...I don't really know, I've never had a cellar.)

And yeah, I know, I left some other sale stuff in there a couple of days too long, I just haven't gotten around to deleting them yet, but I will tomorrow, so consider this your second last chance! :)
