I'm an equal opportunity color lover. Except for the ugly ones.

This week the Let's Blog Off gang wanted to know us bloggers' favorite colors.  Um... helloooo???  All of them!  I don't discriminate on color.  But some I just like more than others.  Specifically these:


Sparkly
here

And totally different from sparkly is glittery.

Rusty

Rough

Smooth
here


Warm
via Desire to Inspire


Smooth AND warm
here


Sanguine
via Busy Being Fabulous

Natural
Arthurite with Pharmacosiderite



Unnaturally ugly
Alex Steckly via Booooooom

Seriously.  I strongly dislike these colors.  The weird thing is I hate them so much I kinda like them now.  That's usually how it works with me.  The colors that make me most vomitous will end up being my favorite in six months.  It happened to me this year with lavender and I'm really scared I'm going to end up liking this colorway.

It's everywhere!!  Ugh.  I need to try some reverse psychology to just go ahead and love this stuff up so I can get it out of my brain as fast as possible.  *shudders*


Check out the rest of the favoritest color entries here.  If anyone says peach and soft teal I might punch them.  Maybe hug...  I don't know.

    I must say, I'm a fan of Rusty and Sanguine...and I'm right there with you on the hideous popsicle stick paint strokes - ewwwwie! I've never been a big fan of pink to begin with, but...ew. That takes my dislike to a whole 'nother level.

    (Also, it reminds me of bandaids?)

    Bandaids is perfect! Perfectly nasty... Maybe that artist needs a pat on the back for giving me such a visceral response!

    I don't mind if some things from the '80s come back - Golden girls episodes, Kenny Loggins, etc. - but NOT the colors.

    1. The originating source link for "glittery" is a sweet website, and now I dig music by Nause - that's what I get for a "particulate" exploration : )

    2. Rusty. Sweeeet.

    3. Ice cream colors look best when used for...ice cream : )

    Anyway...

    Rusty was always such a ladies man.

    This is an interesting take on our "assignment." I especially like what you did with rust, as I didn't think that could look good at all, but it does!

    May I start to call you Peaches and Teal? Sort of like the song team Peaches and Herb, but with more nausea and less singing (or are you any good at singing)? You've hurt my feelings BIG TIME because I love salmon and sea foam! I'm crying sea foam tears right now.

    You can call me Peaches and Teal but we might find out if you bleed sea foam... ; )
