Colour Palette Inspiration – Emerging Spring

Emerging Spring Colour Palette It’s almost the end of February and spring will soon be upon us! Spring is my favourite season and I love the colours that are associated with it. If you look closely when you’re out and about, you might just see a few signs of spring starting to appear.

I was out walking my dog today down by the river near where I live and I just had to take this picture and create a colour palette from it to show some of spring’s colours emerging. Set against the bright blue sky, you can just see some greens and golds appearing across an otherwise stripped back landscape which was the result of a pretty cold winter!

If you’re inspired by nature, you might want to use this “Emerging Spring” colour palette as the basis of your next jewellery making or craft project or even to use for planning your home decor!

I've posted a tutorial on my blog (link in bio).
