Color - Where to Find Inspiration

Image
Color is everywhere. It is in everything. Even black & white has 'color' in the form of undertones.  Have you ever tried to match a black shirt and a black pair of pants? Or picked out paint swatches for white ceilings? The underlying colors seep out and your white suddenly looks pink or your black becomes dark green. I love color. It makes me happy. My daughter shares my love for all things colorful. The other day she came out of her room dressed in purple socks, orange leggings, a hot pink skirt and a turquoise shirt. She's quite the fashionista. A lot of my color inspiration comes from my daughter's closet. I wish they would make some of those outfits in grown-up sizes - not that I could get away with actually wearing any of it . But the color palettes are always so much fun! Fabric of any kind is often bursting with color combinations just waiting to be made into a set of beads. In the summer my inspiration comes from my backyard. Stare at a beautiful garde
