Color Week Day 3/ Yellow
Remember that game you played as a kid where you would hold a buttercuo under someone's chin? If it glowed yellow, it meant they liked butter. That seemed very significant as a child. Yellow feels like warmth, buttery and sunny. I like a touch of yellow with grey or blue. Another great thing about yellow in it's brightest tones: it almost pulses with vibrancy. It feels alive.
