I’m so excited to be taking part in the colour palette blog walk today, all organised by Brandi at Brandi Girl Blog.
The task was easy, create a colour palette around the theme of achievements. How we interpreted that was entirely up to us. I would have posted photos of my boys, except that I’m against doing that, because they are by far my biggest achievement. So instead I went for a very small achievement towards a long term goal. For those that know me well they know my love of fabric and how, one day, I would like to design and print my own. A year or so ago I went from dreaming about the process and took part in a print workshop for 2 days. This weekend I’m back at the same print workshop to refresh my skills and now I’m a member I can hire out the facilities and get to work.
This (not very successful) photo is of my ‘test’ fabric I used throughout the course. It was where I tried things out and tested the colours I had mixed. I recently had a friend ask if she could buy it from me and the tea towel I made her during this course she has framed it and hung it in her bedroom – makes me a little closer to my dream. And just as an aside – in the final print run I replaced the orange with a grey. I wish I hadn’t done that because I think the orange rocks!
Now – go check out my fellow colour palette blog walk participants – you’ll have fun.
