Here are some hot jewelry design tips for Spring 2009 - courtesy of Anne Rush, a professional designer and director in the fashion jewelry industry:
Spring 2009 is in the air. So for all you who are extremely busy with your own home jewellery businesses I thought some hints on the key trends might be helpful. As always we must begin with color. There are three important color stories for the season. The first is black and white. The new take for this graphic combo is floral. Pretty all over large flowers. What's really fresh for black and white is taking it in a less slick direction and adding a more textural attitude.
I believe using fabric wrapped beads, printed ceramic, and glass beads from India that are imperfect is a great way to achieve a crisp but natural look for this palette. Coral and yellow is the warm palette this spring/summer. Look to the continent of India for inspiration. Use patterned beaded and etched metals to compliment your colors. Antique finished on metal, and rose gold platings can really make this theme a bit more directional. Amazonite greens and translucent turquoise look great for a cool spring palette. Try mixing matte and shiny beads for a beachy feeling. Touches of raffia for texture make a nice contrast, and using a brown or natural material to ground the colors is a new way to do blue.
