“Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun.”

— Mary Lou Cook

The Mood

Draw A Design competition has four categories that are popular for their timeless appeal, functionality, attitude, & durability. And, to help my fellow designers, I have made my own version of mood boards hoping that they will inspire you to bring out your creativity.

1. Galaxy of Sparkles

Galaxy of Sparkle offers a perfect opportunity to showcase amazing colors of the Mother Nature. The design is supposed to reflect the charm induced in the splendid allure of each stone. Whether it’s as dazzling as sun or as calm as sea, or a quite forest, each gemstone has a story to narrate.

Luxurious Dazzles

Nothing radiates the rich glimmers like Diamonds. Symbolizing eternity and foreverness, diamonds deserve nothing less than impeccable creativity and luxury. Complementing its aura and majesty, the design needs to stem from heart and soul. Don’t forget, the 4 Cs have a significant part to play!

Artistic Expressions

Bringing the spectacularism of rich and one of the oldest civilizations to life, the designs reflect the true essence of Indian artistry and craftsmanship. Deriving inspiration from versatile cultures and ethnicity of the country, the jewelry speaks volumes of artistic mastery

Colorful Bubbles

One of the most versatile jewelry styles, beads tops the list of fashion as well as fine jewelry. Made with incredible combination of colors, styles and shapes, beads jewelry designs are absolute limitless.
