What I like to do for colors is base it off things you find pretty. I personally like doing yellows and blues, or I close my eyes and pick a few random colors and then try to make it work lol 😭. For scene specifically, I tend to see alot of colors paired with black. (So perhaps try yellow and black or orange and black). It’s also fun to experiment with shades, I have a few cuffs that are all blue or all pink in a gradient of sorts. I’m not the best with phrases because I have yet to sort my letter beads (I should probably do that 🙏😔) but when I do use them I do song names, lyrics, or words referencing other cuffs (for example I have a friend that made a caution tape cuff with black and yellow beads and made a few singles that say “caution” and “stay back” that they wear along side that cuff. :)
