I love purple, but never been much of a fan of green. You carry it well though, I may have to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI love purple, but never been much of a fan of green. You carry it well though, I may have to give it a try!
ReplyDeletePurple and green go so lovely together, and are two of my favorite colors!
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of both purple and green and love playing with them, I have made some really great jewelry with those colors.
ReplyDeleteOkay maybe I'm just dumb, but I had never heard of Google Friend Connect. I googled it (haha) and found a Google Help page saying that it was retired on March 1, 2012. Can you explain how to follow this blog in more detail, for dummies like me? Or do I just click the Google +1 button above?
ReplyDeleteHi Meg! sorry for the confusion, simply "follow" the blog using the link in the upper right hand corner (where all the "followers" icons are.)
ReplyDeletethanks!

ReplyDeleteLove the color combo. You wear it very well too. Pretty!
ReplyDeleteWhoaoaoa there's whole right sidebar over there! Ahahaha, yes I am dumb. :) My screen is too small for this site I guess. I got it now, thanks!
ReplyDeleteAs for a real comment, I agree wit hthe others that you wear the colors well, but I could never do it myself. Once when my brother and I were young, we were arguing in the back seat of the car while my mom drove. In order to make us stop fighting, she told us this story: "OH MY GOSH DO YOU SEE THAT? You don't see that? You don't see the little green men over there? They have Mary*! They have Mary and...THEY'RE PAINTING HER PURPLE!" Each line had a long pause after it and sounded lightly more hysterical than the previous, and boy did it shut us up fast.
So, to this day green and purple evoke images of Marvin the Martian clones brandishing purple paintbrushes.
I have always been a fan of Purple and green. I also learned that purple and green are sacred colors to some Native tribes too.
ReplyDeleteI love purple! :) -Pixie
