Styling with sand and elements allows you to play with all of the natural colors and textures our world has to offer. When you’re deciding what you want to put in your next piece from Dune Jewelry you are literally turning your memories into fashion! Start with the moment you want to capture and pick a primary element from that experience. Will you use the blush tones of sand from the Caribbean? Or are you looking for the colorful beauty of a pressed flower petal? As a rule of thumb, select your element first and let the designs follow. Our Experiential Style Guide shows you how to capture your favorite memories with sand and natural elements.
