These are some pieces we made using a Mokume Gane technique combining the Cashmere Rose with Reflecting Pond and Stormy Weather. The Stormy Weather has a lot of metallic in it so I love the shimmer effect it has.

The "snap" earrings were created with the double loop snap base findings. We added the clear crystal bead and chain tassel to the bottom to give them more length and a different style. We now have lots of the single and double loop snap findings in stock and available in bulk as well as in pairs or in the Starter kits.

Hi Carolyn! I'm a new follower who has recently purchased your color system tutorial. I can't wait to dig into it. While I was browsing your site, I started collecting color recipes for the semi annual pantone colors and I was really hoping to find Reflecting Pond and Stormy Weather, but when I click on their images, it says, page not found. Would you be able to direct me to the appropriate pages for those two colors? I really love how dark and ominous they both look :D Thank you in advance!
O I did not realize those posts are missing and not sure what happened to them. That is so strange. I am sorry about that and thanks so much for bringing it to my attention. I will go through my recipes and get that straightened out, hopefully tomorrow sometime. I will comment here when it is fixed.
