Look Series: Sapphire [Birthstone]
This month I wanted to kick off a few new series, and this is the first of them. Birthstones are the inspiration, and as such – you’ll see one a month, unless there are multiple options or additional inspiration. By no means is this anything new, but it’s something that leaves a lot of room for interpretation.
One of my favourite birthstone series was done by one of my favourite YouTube gurus EmsyJay. Browse through her videos to have a look at her work.
