Here’s the reveal day for the One Crayon Color Challenge. Thanks to Sally Russick for hosting the hop.
I’m not sure why I selected the color orange. I’m really fond of certain shades and tones of orange, mainly rust colors, but flat out orange always seems a bit too bright and obnoxious to me. While scouting out some information about the color orange, here’s what I found out:
Orange is a power color. It is one of the healing colors.
Put some orange in your life when you want:
• to spice things up when you feel time is dragging
• to become more involved in something
• to increase creativity
• relief from things becoming too serious
Wearing orange during times of stress, or shock can help to balance your emotions. It can bring about the willingness to embrace new ideas with enjoyment and a sense of exploration and creative play (excerpted from http://crystal-cure.com/orange.html.)
wow, that is so gorgeous!
Oh my…I know orange worked for you! What a beautiful braclet you have created full of life and movement. I love this!!!
Loving this. Wish I knew this technique. This is awesome.
I knew you would make something fabulous–and you did. You’ve left me nearly speachless with this one!
Beautiful work, love the colors!
CeCe, your bracelet is STUNNING! I’m speechless! The micro macrame, the beautiful orange hues and the beadweaving, simply amazing! SO GORGEOUS!! Thank you so much for participating in the one crayon challenge!
Whoa! I love the curves of this stack of bracelets. It really give the orange a flow. You’ve worked magic with this color. Well done!
Wow! How did you do that! Those are amazing. I love them.
OMG I’m speechless. That is stunning, amazing and gorgeous. I absolutely LOVE that pattern. Would love the tutorial on it!
Oh wow Cece, your micro macrame bracelets are jaw dropping gorgeous. I love them!

Oh, wow, Cece – absolutely gorgeous! The patterns is lovely and your colours are so vibrant: very, very nice!
Absolutely love it. I wish we lived closer so you could teach me this sort of thing! I would totally wear this and I’m not an orange person so that should say something! Excellent.
Simply gorgeous – love the colors you used and the micor macrame weave is awesome! Thanks for the explanation of the color orange!
Gorgeous, vibrant and warm, colours!
Oh my goodness, I love that design. It’s so fun! I generally stay away from any kind of bead weaving/knot tying thing (no patience!), but I wanna learn how to do that!
Oh my goodness…I’m so in love with your bracelets it’s not even funny! The colors all play so nicely together.
Wow! Just wow! At first I thought that was one big bracelet and couldn’t figure out how you sewed them together. Stacking bracelets makes more sense. 🙂 I just adore those. You do such beautiful work.
Snazzy. That is what comes to mind. Cool design!!
Oh.My.Gosh! That’s gorgeous! What a fantastic job!
I knew I’d see something beautiful here – and I was right! Gorgeous bracelets Cece!
Wow! I love what you made! The color orange has been growing on me lately!
This is one of the most beautiful bracelets! I would wear this in a heartbeat! Stunning!
I love how these dance on your wrist. They are amazing!!!
Wow- that is truly amazing. I looked into micro macramé but didn’t think I would have the patience to learn it. BUT when I see this I think I would sit still for a long time in order to make something this beautiful. You have my attention!
Love, love, love!!!
There is some really nice work in this challenge, but your bracelet made me stop and gasp — it’s truly spectacular. Who wouldn’t feel a surge of energy and strength with this beauty on their arm?!!
I always love your work and today is no exception, you’ve done Orange proud with your bracelets…these are jaw-droppingly beautiful!
Oh wow … these are amazing! I do believe these are the happiest bracelets I’ve ever seen. LOVE them!
This is absolutely the coolest piece of jewelry I’ve seen in ages!!! Macrame always makes me happy because it makes me think of great second grade projects…plus, orange is, as you say, “spicy” and “power” all together. I want it!
Ciao!

ooooh, that stack is super cool! and I loved your information on the color. I’ve never been too fond of it (though I’ve been dying my hair bright orange over 25 years, go figure!) but I think I would definitely wear your bracelets 🙂
Fantastic as allways my friend!
I would like to see some more pictures of this beauty 🙂
Just fantastic. A feast for the eyes! Micro macrame is going on my Bucket List!
Holy Moley – This cuff is awesome! LOVE it.
Very fun and very playful! I think this is one of my favorite pieces in this hop. Thanks for sharing!
Luscious!!!
Love, love, love them!
That is SUPER COOL!!! That bracelet makes me want to go on a tropical vacation and have tropical drinks in the sunset!

I am so in love w/your bracelets -they’re awesome! I’ve been trying to micro macrame and can’t seem to do a good job and you’ve got it perfected to a “T”!! Love all the shades of orange and the curves in the bracelets – they flow so nicely!! Beautiful!
I love your bracelets, really beautiful!
What a gorgeous bracelet. Mesmerizingly beautiful!
Wow! really incredible!
