Has anyone else color swapped designs like this?

I've been wanting a mini orchid set but I'm not the biggest fan of the color pallete. I do like the original and plan to buy it, but I'm considering replacing some parts to change up the color.

I downloaded the build instructions to use the finished build photo and edited it in an app. Excuse that its messy, I did this on my phone with my fingers and the app I used was free. Lol

I tried googling to see if anyone had done something like this to see what options I had for colors and get some inspiration but I couldn't find anything for the mini orchid set.

The first one is maybe my favorite so far but I included some variations I tested. Some changes are minor. I only looked at colors available from Lego's brick picker or whatever it's called. I may look for some parts elsewhere to expand my options for colors.

I'm open to any design advice or inspo! I'll probably make a few more that are based on real Phalaenopsis colors.

Edit to add: Last photo is the original. Included to compare.

Hello,

I purchased these pieces at a Renaissance Festival last year. The gold piece has no hallmarks so I'm assuming there i'snt any real gold. The ring is marked 925. I was assured the metals didn't contain nickle and my allergies, or lack of, seem to confirn that.The jewlery is relatively nice quality. See the back of the necklace. I'm just curious how the stones look. I would think they are likely synthetic but I'm not very knowledgeable on Opals.

I'd like to research these more care wise so i'm just hoping for a general direction as far as where to start.
