Mauve

Mauve...There are just so many shades and tones of it. Sometimes it can be greyish, sometimes it's purplish.

It seems Mauve is the "in" colour for this Autumn season.

Mauve reminds me of...

Then a few days ago, a sweet customer approached me to commission some food jewelry - mauve macaron ring. She showed me a photo with the most breath-taking mauve colour I've ever seen, and I jumped right into it, making her a mauve macaron ring! Because I'm so inspired, I will make the whole range of macaron rings from that photo.

Can't wait to dive right into it, but first I have to finish some pending work...

  1. I love that color! Especially when the shade is almost gray and it's difficult to tell if it's really purple or not.

  4. Ow! So that's mauve... I've always thought it's a aquamarine kinda colour or magenta ish... Hmmm.
    I think I can associate the colour with a person who's cyanotic, scary; but I like the colour.
