autumnletters asked: So sorry I'm so slow writing back! Tumblr ate your ask. I've been thinking about colors for Spring too, but anything I found that was predicted to be trending this spring I was not able to find in bead colors or crystal colors so...I just got what I thought was pretty, heh. :)
yeah, finding beads and crystal that go with trends is hard. What I seen is even if found crystal that match the trend - they never sold. I think Etsy buyers are trend leaders not trend followers and therefore the color forecasts, we have free access to (pantone etc..) are out of date for the majority of Etsy clients. I think it best to go wit what a) you like and b) your best sellers in terms of style and color. Also since you do a portion of yours as vintage jewels - the color choice are much more limited - making it hard to even attempt to order “on trend colors”
