Colorful Jewelry Choices

POSTED BY Tammy Powley, 16 October 2007

Color selection is just as important to jewelry designers as it is to clothing designers, and we need to think ahead. Right now, we are in fall 2007, but what about spring 2008? What about fall of 2009? Sounds like it is so far away, but if you try to keep ahead with your jewelry inventory, you really have to think pretty far in advanced.

One resource for keeping up with color trends is the color forecast published on the Fire Moutain Gems and Beads web site. Their current forecast goes up to Fall-Winter 2008/2009 and includes downloadable pdf files with color samples. Pretty handy - if you have a color printer, you can print them up and hang them on the way for reference as yo design. Some of the colors they list include baking chocolate, green tea, pumpkin, and...hmm...anyone getting hungry?
