Blog Ring Thursday- Advent BLog-a-long Day 10

Time for another EART Team blog ring! Today's question-

What are your favorite colors to work with? Is it hard to work outside of your favorites?

I tend to use black a lot. Dichroic glass comes with black and clear glass as a base, so that makes it an easy choice. I also like earth tones. I tend to chose a cream color over a pure white. I pull patterns and designs from nature, so that lends itself easy to those kinds of colors as well. I do find it kind of hard to work outside my favorites. I usually just try to create a picture or idea that may have popped into my head and I struggle to find inspiration if I have a project that has a color palette outside of my norms.

Head on over to Diva Dea to see what her favorite colors to use are:

Locks of Love Donation

I've wanted to cut my hair and donate to Locks of Love for many years now, but my hair would always get long, I'd get tired of it, and just cut it telling myself I'd donate next time. Well, this time I finally did it! I haven't gone with short hair (above my collar bone) in at least a decade. I e-mailed my hair stylist to ask her what she thought about short hair for me and she was fully confident that she could make me look great. I thought about it some more and finally just set up an appointment. I was more determined to cut my hair to donate (it was really long and I was getting fed up with it) than I was concerned about the length anymore. Here are my before and after pictures! I am so happy with it! It's a great length and I love my color!

Before- Looooooooong hair
