Too Dark For Summer?

I just pulled these lovlies out of the kiln this morning, and was a tad surprised to see how dark the colors turned out to be. Normally in the summer I like to work a little lighter. I still like the color combo though - so I listed them on ebay. What do you think? Take the poll below! :)




What do you think of the color scheme on these beads?

  1. Not only do I think they aren't too dark, I immediately went and bid on them! I have tried unsuccessfully for months to win an auction of one of your bead sets. Maybe one day I'll get lucky.

  2. why would summer only get the lighter tones? These colors are so chic together that they demand sunset soirées... :-)

  3. I love the color combo. I'm a redhead and more inclined to wear darker colors even in the summer(I just choose light weight fabrics)Very very pretty!

  4. I think these would be fab for Fall--like October. I love the orange and purple combo at that time of year. I agree--lighter for summer.

  5. My choice of color does not depend on season, but more of my moods and how well the accessories blend to what I'll be wearing.very chic. I like the color combination.

  11. The beads are so beautiful! They remind me of Halloween. But because purple is my favorite color, I would use them any time of the year.

  15. that purple is actually a spring summer color from pantone colors so I do not think its too dark for summer this year... its the little bits of orange that has a fall feel!!! Although it's beautiful and would wear whatever the season!!!
