The bottom three jigs are my initial trials/examples. I added a coat of black powder paint to the top of the yellow jig heads in order to produce a two-tone effect.
Will be attempting several with green and yellow chartreuse base coats later this weekend.

Holiday Ties
Tied a few "spider grub"-styled kreature baits and some assorted craft fur minnows. Mixed a new-to-me powder paint color called "Cotton Candy Confetti". I think that it's a nice-looking combination of glitters and clear powder paint.
Hope you had a great Christmas and best wishes for the New Year.
