“As the world around us has become so uncertain, I’ve loved connecting deeper with myself as well as virtually with friends and family while finding new ways to keep the Traditions that mean the most to me alive and growing. This year, I have been drawn back to my comfort zone with many colors that have always been part of my bead stash, along with some newer, irresistible color complements I have yet to mix together. These colors have helped me anchor and lift, or sparkle and soften, my designs and my attitude, bring out the roots of my experiences using the Art of Beading, and bring my visions to life. With this color palette for TOHO Challenge 2021, I hope you too, will find comfort in connecting to your Traditions in a Modern way, and we will help share your visions with the world.”
