Do you ever look in your closet and notice that you have a TON of a certain color?
When I look in my closet I see a lot of this.

Hmmmn...so how how do I stack up?
Nature: I like the IDEA of nature but not always the application of it.
Growth, harmony, freshness and fertility: Yep, yep, yep, and well, I did just have a baby.
Safety: It has been said that my kung-fu skills are second to none.
Dark green for money: Note to self - buy more dark green!
Healing powers: My cure-all includes a Dr. Pepper, some Nyquil, and a shopping trip.
Improves vision: My poor vision obviously didn't get that memo.
Lack of experience: Between that and the blondeness, life can be a challenge sometimes.
Use green to indicate safety of drug products: Duly noted for future job with drug cartel.
Dull, dark green for money: Note to self - buy more dark green already!

My closet is full of green and blue. I really need to mix things up a bit.
ReplyDeleteAnd by "mix things up" I, of course, mean buy more dark green because I like the sound of that money thing.
I have a lot of yellow and reds and purples. Lately however I have been wearing a lot of grays and blacks. I need to get more colorful maternity clothes.
ReplyDeleteA while back I had the same experience when looking in my closet, except my closet was about 90% filled with items in black. I thought this was odd considering I painted my house in bright vibrant colors...Livingroom = terracotta/fireplace-dark red...Foyer and hallway = Pixie Violet...Communal Bath = Mystic Harbor Blue/grey...Sierra's room = Butter Yellow...Kitchen = Vibrant blue...master bedroom = Dusted Bronze(pumpkin pie-ish) with non-painted rooms chosen out (turquoise/green/peanut butter brown/iced tea yellow/tan) I lived in so many colors it was hard for me to look in my closet and see so much black, while a classic I needed to add color, now my closet is 90% color and 10% black and I LOVE it!!
