    Lots of possibilities using orange - you could go light and bright with lemon yellow and lime green on/with white

    You could tone it down with rust and brown - add a touch or purple or eggplant/aubergine and olive green- surprisingly, it does work (the technical reason - it's a triad on a color wheel)

    You can put it with red and yellow for a blaze of color - sunset/sunrise colors - add some black for silhouettes

    Pantone names a color every year and designers of fashion and home decor follow up with lots of articles in their choice. Year 2012 is the year of "Mango Tango" You can find it in most everything....from paints to bathing suits.

    That is stunning. The picture I'm sure is a pale resemblance to this bright, gorgeous use of COLOR!

    I've got an orange one. I call this Carrot Sticks, and have shown it here when it was just a top. Now, it just has a bit of binding for me to do.
