Color Quizes

First, I just wanted to say that for the first time ever I saw myself on the first page of the search results when I googled for color quiz. Kind of cool but completely irrelevant to this post. I obviously just really like doing color quizzes and talking about them. I found this one challenging but fun about how many colors you can name in 5 minutes. It took me 3 tries to get over 40 to be honest. You have to think creatively and try to come up with some exotic ones. They say there is over 200 colors which seems bizarre to me. I love the color wheel someone took the time to make out of leaves above.

This color personality quiz was kind of interesting too. I agree with most of it, except for the conservative part. I particularly like this line: You're not exactly a bouncy sunshine but things in your world generally look up. So there is my contribution for the day. A few colorful diversions for your weekend!


you are steelblue

Your dominant hues are cyan and blue. You like people and enjoy making friends. You're conservative and like to make sure things make sense before you step into them, especially in relationships. You are curious but respected for your opinions by people who you sometimes wouldn't even suspect.

Your saturation level is medium - You're not the most decisive go-getter, but you can get a job done when it's required of you. You probably don't think the world can change for you and don't want to spend too much effort trying to force it.

Your outlook on life is brighter than most people's. You like the idea of influencing things for the better and find hope in situations where others might give up. You're not exactly a bouncy sunshine but things in your world generally look up.

Color Inspirations and Color Quiz



I thought it was time to shake things up a bit and bring some color back into the blog. If you haven't noticed I love bold color choices and mixing things together in unique ways. I spent some time going through my favorites on Etsy this cold morning looking for vibrant color pairings and I thought I would share. I am in love with the Art Quilt Wallhanging Stitched up by Spiralsun65. It was just the burst of color I needed to get my energy up this morning. I love how she shows her knowledge of color theory in a playful way.

I also discovered a fun color quiz on a blog that tests your ability to distinguish color hues and shades. It took me less than 10 minutes to take and I found the results very interesting. You may have to click on your country but it will then take you to the quiz page. The closer you score to 0 the better your score and it looks like the highest score so far was a 1450, which means you would probably have to miss every single one. I got an 11, which I was excited about, and that is on my fairly dark hued computer monitor. I'll probably try it again at home to see if I can improve any.



It's a great test for artists or designers to see what you need to work on in recognizing colors and their relationships. I actually was perfect on everything but the blues and greens which is interesting since those are generally not my favorites to work with. I would love to hear how you do on the quiz!

I adore the wearable art vest by stormeejean. She combines African fabric scraps in a wild and unique way to create a one of a kind creation. You should also check out her blog, The Sewing World of Stormee, where she talks about her adventures in sewing and creating.

How cool would it be to have a custom coat made for you in your own favorite color palette. Katwise makes these unique creations out of reclaimed sweaters with many different colors and textures in each. They are each totally one of a kind and absolutely fabulous.

I have been working with a lot of teal and pink lately for some reason. Feel free to share your own color inspirations with me. What color combinations do you think will be big this Spring?
