Dianna Agron in Greece. Original pic from Chloe Wise Insta, enlarged 2x with some cropping, detail sharpening, and color adjustment. Not the greatest quality, but worth a look, maybe.
What struck me about this challenge is the repetition of pattern and the prominence of texture that are so evident in the terraced crown of the building, so that's what I focused on in my design.
I made the beads from domed discs that I cut from etched copper sheet and then soldered together. I attempted to echo the repetitive triangular pattern from the building's face in the herringbone wirework in the focal and the three accent beads. In addition, I made accent beads from copper gears that I also domed and soldered.
To echo the mirror-like appearance of the windows, I have hung little charms made from 4mm bicone beads in a hematite finish and in a clear/no-finish, as well as adding a tiny pop of color with charms made from enameled headpins.
