Several years ago I decided I wanted to formally catalog all the interesting, beautiful, surprising, and even weird color palettes that pop out in daily life. While I’ve tried a few times to make this documentation a habit, (hence the hashtag #colormemonday) life kept that from happening.
And since the theme of this year is “grace”, I’ve decided it’s okay that I don’t.. and probably won’t, have one of these up every Monday. For now, I’ll be putting some of my previous palettes here, while (hopefully) creating new ones for future Mondays. :)
I loved this little combo of vintage glass objects I pulled together when my husband and I were renting our first home. The saturation of the blue bottle was such a stark contrast with the pale pink of the glass but somehow when I added the minty green, a balance was achieved. What’s also interesting is how the textures of these items affect the palette. I think this is a common theme in the combinations that attract my eye. Anyway, here’s a flashback to the very first #colormemonday, which has now simply become my #colorjournal.
