Colors...........

Hey, what about colors........if you are a certain age, then you probably have done the "what are my colors" party or had your colors "done". I think, and goodness knows I am not going to assume, that most every female has a favorite color........now not only do they have a favorite color, but they have special colors for their clothes, rooms in the house, jewelery, furniture, you get the picture. Men, well men are men, give them more than one choice and most get this look on their face like " Is this one of those questions like 'does this make me look fat?' ?" and then back away slowly and grab their brown/blue jacket and escape out the door. When I was younger it was blue.........blue everything, then somewhere along the way, I allowed other colors to slip in....like yellow (but not on me.......oooo, talk about jaundice looking!!!!) and green, ewwwww, lilac and orange too............BUT....if you have known me for the last few years, you know red and I are such good friends.....especially in clothes......I love red. I love red red, deep red, garnet red, hmmmm, now the Christmas red is ok for Christmas, but not on me or my purses. Here is a photo of one of my most favorite mugs in the house........it's actually my daughter Jenn's mug.........but s l o w l y but surely I am using it more and more and feeling very comfortable with it. Don't you just love the colors, they are so soft, and even the yellow of the stars, well it's soft and warm too. I would like to create something using these colors.....in fact I have a bookmark that I "won" a couple of years ago at The Divine Miss Em's school,(oldest grand daughter, for those of you that don't know - and is there anyone who knows me, that doesn't know the names of ALL of my grandchildren?) and it has the same colors in it. Now, here is my mug. Yes mine. No one uses it....maybe it's the look that they receive when they come near it, maybe it's the fear of the deep and dark mood that would overcome me if it were broken or chipped.......or maybe my family is just humoring me, who knows and who cares......it's mine. I splurged on this mug some years ago at the Festival in the Park, in Spearfish, SD. Didn't have much $$, but when I saw it, I knew it was meant for me.......it felt good in my hands and that day I felt like I was worth the $$ that I paid for it........see it's blue, a soft grayish blue and totally pottery.....I love pottery. So, that is just the tip of the ice-berg on colors and me.......how do you feel about colors, what are your favorite?
