I've been reading "The Beader's Colour Mixing Directory" by Sandra Wallace. Shes a really really nice lady and has written a great book all about the use of colour schemes in jewellery design. I love making colourful jewellery so thought I'd have a change and limit myself to beads of just one colour.So I made a turquoise necklace with a large silver foil glass bead as th
