I love greens, most favorite are the jewel tone greens - emerald/forest/kelly green. Being a redhead, I love some of the colors that do not typically go with a red head unless muted in some fashion.RubyChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886738178473797806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-76129530084273044512012-09-09T21:10:52.193-04:002012-09-09T21:10:52.193-04:00Chartreuse and gray!

All of the things I do in the room add lots of color (quilting, books, knitting, spinning, weaving) and so these colors are a restful backdrop for the action.

The purple can be any shade as can the green. My color sense has taken a long time to develop but I normally feel if I can find the colors together in nature, they go together. That color grid looks a lot easier to use than the color wheel.
