Lavender Meets Pink

Lavender and pink rule the day on the Blogging Business Artisans team this week, but the textures will surprise you. Ceramic meets glass with a pair of Ceramic Hoop Earrings with Lampwork Glass Beads, while a fine art photograph captures the sweetness of pink paint-coated metal in Pink Volkwagen Photo. Faceted crystal glitters in Lavender Swarovski Heart Earrings, contrasting with cool-but-curvy Lucite in Plum Pink Lucite Flower Earrings. Rounded beads evoke the rolling movement of a crawling caterpillar in Purple and Brown Caterpillar Beadwoven Bracelet, while pink ribbons explode softly in Charity Pink Tie Dye T Shirt. You’ll enjoy the contrasts in the photo collage, but will delight in exploring the individual products even more.

To see the products in more detail, click directly on the individual images, or visit the links below this photo collage.
