Coloured Bottle Series - Orange

Description

Trying to come up with something for this colour proved to be very tricky, I almost regretted doing the phoenix-fire theme on the yellow bottle, so it's kinda funny that this one has become my favorite of the six :)

I first thought 'Halloween' but that was too seasonal. Then I though goldfish, but I felt that would work better on a green bottle that was bigger (which of course I purchased after that thought ;)). Finally I decided to use the techniques 1 [link] & 2 [link] I had recently learned to do. Why use it for jewerly alone? So I tried out some colour combinations and finally settled on these, which gave it a nice henna tattoo feel. Added flowers in the same style as the stamps and embellished them with one large and several small agate stone beads.

Then came the fourth side and that left me a little stumped again. Even elephant came to mind (to keep with the Indian theme) till I settled on bird again. Though I did want each bottle to be very different from the rest, a bird would just work best I felt. I used a turquoise to contrast with all the orange and copper (a favorite combination of mine) and to keep it different I made it a hummingbird, with simpler wings and tail and its chest showing instead of its back. Added a little Swarovski heart to finish it.

I love it so much, I think I'll just sell the purple one instead.
