    This is so cool. Thank you for sharing and it is how I have often described to DH how I would want a room painted. Now I can show him the Thesaurus! Thank You, again.

    LOVE IT! when I taught the 'color wheel' to my students, I came across the fact that there are over 14,000 different names for colors around the world. Then we made a board list of colors in our little part of the world, much like your example:

    But the visual colors are great! Thanks for sharing. Nice memories for me and good resource.
