Project By: Janice Parsons
Sample By: Linnea Lortsher

One of the first wildflowers to put on a show in Spring, lupine blankets fields and hillsides with stunning hues of purple, lilac and lavender. Inspired by the whorling pattern of florets that make up the spiky lupine flower, Linnea wanted to create an ombré with C-lon in shades of purple and green, embellished with silver plated metal seed beads. Crossing the straps as they passed through the Outline slider creates an unexpected twist and draws the eye to land on the Mr. Bumble charm, perched on his jump ring as if ready to buzz to the next blossom. This 3-wrap design is a delightful celebration of spring.
