Color Study Recipe

---

More than any other ingredient in your project, color is the key component to creating a cohesive and inspired design. As Janice always says, “Get the color right and the design will follow.” Color Study is a multi-technique, multi-wrap bracelet which weaves a story through color, pattern, and unique materials. The companion handout was revised in late 2014 for easier learning, and with two FB Lives going over the techniques in both 2017 and 2018, we now have Episode Notes to review, too.

Additional Learning:

• FB Live 7.12.17: Garden Path Color Study
• Garden Path Episode Notes 7.12.17
• Original Color Study Handout*
• How to Secure a Project to a Board
• How to Macramé

*Please note that this is an older handout and is not to be followed exactly, but reviewing the techniques in it may be helpful.
