Summer Bead Inspirations

This month’s bead giveaway has been drawn. Congratulations to our winner, and thank you so much for to everyone who entered! This month I asked about your favorite summer inspirations. Lauren had the winning comment, and she lists sunshine in the trees as the ultimate idea starter for summer designs.

There is definitely something uplifting about viewing lush branches on a bright backdrop of blue sky, with plenty of light shining through. These bead picks capture the essence of those carefree summer moments.

1. Transparent Yellow Miyuki Fringe Drops from Artbeads.com

2. Apple Green Two-Hole Piggy Beads from Lima Beads

3. Sapphire AB Tri-beads from Fusion Beads

4. Chartreuse Graduated Glass Heishi from Happy Mango Beads
