Now and forever, my favorite color is green! Which green? All greens, all at once! Look at the shading on pears or avocados; that's what I love!

My favorite color is red and has been for as long as I can remember. It's such a vibrant color that can be bright and cheery or dramatic, depending on how it's used. Love it paird with either apple green or light blues and turquoises.
I'm following.
I'll blog about it either tomorrow or Thursday when I do a little reminder about your jewelry giveaway. Oh, and I'll add a cute little button on my sidebar. It'll give me a great excuse to post up her beautiful artwork.
My favorite color changes from season to season... right now I'm loving orange - bright and cheerful for the summer!
Thanks!
