Proud as a Peacock

I have always been captivated by peacocks.

As a young teen, I worked in the concession stands of my local zoo where there were peacocks that roamed the grounds. I loved their elegant strut and brilliantly colored iridescent plumage and found them irresistibly alluring. I always had to stop whatever I was doing when they walked by just to stop and stare in awe. I have never lost that fascination with them.

That could be why I was so thrilled to read an article in a recent fashion magazine that named the colors of the peacock the hottest fall color trend. Looking at the pictures of the trendy fashions inspired me to pull out all my bright blues and greens to create this glamorous necklace.
