Poster Sketch: Zebra Stripes

Last week’s giveaway had a great turnout, and some fantastic comments! With a little help from Random.org, we have a winner for a fun set of leopard print and lapis blue beads. Congratulations to Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, and thank you so much to everyone who entered.

For this giveaway, I asked what your favorite animals prints are. There were some very fun and a few unique responses. Although big cats like leopard and tiger were the most popular, there were also a few mentions of Dalmatian spots, peacock feathers, giraffes and even the humble cow! Catherine picked zebra stripes - always a favorite.

The organic shapes and patterns of simple zebra stripes look gorgeous on their own, but also pair up well with other colors - especially neons. Here are a few fun zebra picks, including always lovely zebra shell beads.

Happy beading!

    Yay! Zebra stripes! We went to the El Paso Zoo this past weekend and I was absolutely mesmerized by the zebras, especially the way the stripes ripple when they move. Thank you so much, Morti! I will treasure the beads :)
